Restoring the performance of a car engine | Chapel Hill Sheena

The term "performance" is often used in the automotive industry. It can describe fast acceleration, easy vehicle handling, and advanced engine capabilities. However, performance is not only what your car is made of, but also something you must maintain with regular vehicle maintenance and care. So what do you do when your car's performance slows down? Often, resolving performance issues is as simple as a visit to an engine performance repair shop.

Engine Performance Recovery

While the engine maintenance you need depends on the specific problem you're having, Performance Rebuild addresses one major problem that can occur in vehicle engines: low piston ring tension. Poor piston ring performance leads to oil contamination, oil oxidation and loss of pressure in the combustion chamber. This can result in reduced engine performance, more frequent oil changes and lower fuel consumption. Luckily, an engine reconditioning service is available to help get your vehicle back in good health. 

Engine Performance Reconditioning (EPR) cleans piston ring deposits to prevent oil contamination and oxidation, and restores piston ring tension. Once your piston rings are clean, your engine performance will immediately see the benefits of this service. An EPR service can help solve many vehicle problems and prevent future engine problems. Here's a look at some of the key benefits of engine performance restoration.

Oil preservation | Why is my oil leaking?

It's no secret that oil changes are essential to the health and performance of your engine. When your piston rings are loose, they can lead to rapid oil oxidation and contamination. This vehicle issue can also cause your engine oil to come out through the rings and out the exhaust pipe. Combined, these oil problems can lead to additional oil changes. Restoring engine performance can stop and prevent these oil problems by improving the sealing of the combustion chamber. EPR effectively protects engine oil from piston ring problems and prevents it from leaking from the exhaust pipe. 

Protect and improve your engine

As the name suggests, EPR service gets your engine back up and running. It improves engine performance by cleaning piston rings and preventing pressure loss in the combustion chamber caused by damaged rings. Also, when your oil is frequently compromised, you can put your engine under harmful stress and risk costly damage. Performance Recovery protects your engine and reduces stress, preventing oil problems and wastage. 

Restores fuel economy and saves money

Even the most environmentally friendly vehicles can become victims of clogged piston rings and poor fuel economy. When your engine is worn down by dirt and grime, it cannot run at the efficiency it was built for. Engine performance reconditioning cleans up contaminants that cause engine inefficiency, helping you save on pump costs. You'll also save money on piston replacements, extra oil changes, and potential engine damage that can cause loose piston rings.
