We take pride in conducting a thorough inspection process to ensure that every engine and motor B&R delivers is up to quality standards. Our professional technicians conduct a compression test of each cylinder, as well as a visual test to ensure the engine or motor you receive is worthy of shipping out, with the exception of engines with damaged components making it unsafe to run and certain Diesels and Hybrids without starters. The inventory specialist records the compression and notes certain conditions and finding in our state-of-the-art computer system so that our customers can review the notes before buying.
