Before any major engine decision, Anaheim fleets need hard numbers, and we deliver them at our Yorba Linda shop. We run compression and cylinder leak-down tests, measure blow-by, and locate the exact source of lost sealing so you know whether a commercial truck engine needs a valve job, rings, or a full rebuild.


## What this includes
- Cylinder compression testing across the full engine with recorded values
- Cylinder leak-down testing to grade ring, valve, and head-gasket sealing
- Crankcase blow-by measurement to judge overall wear
- Listening tests to trace leak-down loss to intake, exhaust, or crankcase
- Coolant and oil contamination checks tied to compression loss
- Written report with values and a clear repair-or-rebuild recommendation
- Scheduling so Anaheim operators get answers without long downtime

## Who it is for
- Anaheim operators deciding whether an aging engine is worth repairing
- Buyers who want a pre-purchase engine health check on a used commercial truck
- Fleets chasing oil consumption, low power, or a misfire on Orange County routes

## Pricing
A single-engine workup sits near the low end; extensive multi-fault diagnosis reaches the high end, with totals confirmed in writing after an in-shop assessment. Diagnostics billed at $285 per hour.

## FAQ
### What is the difference between compression and leak-down testing?
Compression testing shows how much pressure each cylinder builds; leak-down shows where it escapes. We run both so Anaheim operators get a complete picture of engine health.

### Can this tell me if I need a rebuild?
Yes. The numbers and leak location tell us whether a valve job, rings, or a full rebuild is the right call, so Orange County fleets spend money only where it is needed.

### Do you test engines before I buy a used truck?
We run a pre-purchase compression and leak-down workup so Anaheim buyers know the real condition of a used commercial truck engine before they commit.
