Most Reliable Rebuilt Engine In The Industry
LVS Golf Cart Parts have several different areas in which engines are staged through during the rebuild process. Most other rebuild
companies have a few mechanics on staff that work on a shared work area and all the rebuilding is done there. Not at LVS!. When an
engine is rebuilt by LVS Golf Cart Parts it must pass through several different stages even before being rebuilt. On this page the
area in which the actual rebuild takes place will be presented and explained.
First off, each of the mechanical staff members are responsible for there own area and to maintain a clean and orderly area.
Never is one member allowed to work in another's
staging area unless requested assistance is first approved by the supervisor. This greatly reduces what we call 'cross-contamination.'
Of course there is no such thing as contamination in regards to an engine but we call it this type of system because what LVS
attempts to do is avoid any parts from one engine becoming mixed with another. Yes, parts are interchangeable you may say. But with a
rebuilt engine there are some parts that are reused in a particular rebuild. And a part that has been in one engine for a period
of time may have a different ware pattern than the next. If these parts are interchanged there is a possibility of balance problems
that must be fixed before the engine can be completed. With the team of mechanics taking the extra steps to avoid such
'cross-contamination' this is not an issue with the quality rebuilds of LVS.
The work bench areas pictured above are set up in four different staging areas. There is the break down area where a block is first
marked with all the proper markings on the external parts to be sure the same parts when the engine is reassembled are placed on that
particular block. There is the assembly area where freshly cleaned, polished, and lubricated products are installed into the
correct block. There is also the inspection ares where the supervisor comes in to inspect the assembled engine block and to
make sure each part was properly lubricated before being installed. This is a stage where there may be several open blocks that have
had the parts installed into them but the crankcase covers have not been bolted on. This is the only stage where there may be more
than one engine at a time. This is due to the rebuild team being so proficient at what they do they sometimes get ahead of quality
control. After the supervising technician approves the installed parts he then himself bolts on the crankcase cover and takes each
engine to the appropriate test rack designed for that particularly make and model of engine.
Once the engines have been placed firmly onto the testing block and the primary drive clutch installed onto the engine it is turned
several times by hand to make sure there is no sticking of any kind and the engine turns freely by hand. After this the engine is then cranked
and allowed to run 10+ minutes at full throttle during which time the engine is closely observed by both site and ear for any
possible deficiencies. While the engine is running temperatures are taken every 3 minutes to make sure the fluctuation in temperature
and the rate in which the temperature increases on the block does not exceed that of factory specifications. Adjustments are made
to the carburetor to make the carburetor specifically tuned and ported for the best possible performance on that engine. After the engine has been
turned off a final temperature reading is then taken. The engine is closely examined for any leaks. The engine is again turned by
hand to make sure it still is turning freely with no hang ups. And also every bolt is gone over again with a torque wrench to make
sure none have broken loose or even tightened.
Once the engine has been test run it is then allowed to cool and all the oil drained. Once it is cool the shipping and receiving technicians carefully
shrink-wrap each engine and place them on a shelf awaiting shipment. Each of these engines are completely wrapped prior to being
placed on any shelf. This alleviates any chance of 'shelf-ware' that most items can suffer from by sitting on a shelf. LVS can never
predict how long an engine may sit on a shelf so it was figured best to treat each engine as if it may sit for a while. Although the
typical shelf time of a rebuilt engine by LVS Golf Cart Parts is less than 48 hrs.
No other golf cart engine rebuild company can claim to do as much as LVS Golf Cart Parts when it comes to rebuilding a golf
cart engine. The pride and effort taken in every single one of the LVS rebuilt engines cannot be matched. In a typical rebuild by
OTHER companies the only thing that will be replaced with new in your rebuild will be pistons, rings, valves, gaskets and seals!
A rebuilt engine by the team of mechanics at LVS Golf Cart Parts is easily the most reliable rebuilt engine in the industry today.
These rebuilt engines are built to run BETTER than a new engine. That is why all the special care and extra attention is given to
every rebuilt engine by LVS Golf Cart parts
Every rebuilt engine from LVS Golf Cart Parts comes with a new Carburetor tuned specifically for the engine it is associated with.
