People Also Ask
Is technical support free?
Yes. Technical consultation is completely free for all inquiries — customers and non-customers alike. If your issue requires parts replacement, we’ll quote those separately, but the diagnosis and advice are free.
How quickly can I get help for an emergency breakdown?
Emergency requests (hospital, data center, mining, marine) get priority response within 1 hour during business hours. Mark your inquiry as “URGENT – BREAKDOWN” and provide your phone/WhatsApp number for immediate contact. After-hours emergency support available for contract customers.
Do you provide on-site technical support?
On-site support is available in select regions (Africa, Southeast Asia, Middle East) for major overhauls and complex installations. Travel and accommodation costs apply. Remote support (video call) is the first and usually sufficient approach for 90%+ of issues.
Can you help identify an unknown part from a photo?
Yes. Send clear photos with a ruler or common object for scale reference. Our parts identification accuracy from photos exceeds 85% for common diesel engine components. For ambiguous cases, we request additional angles or measurements.
Do you provide installation manuals or torque specifications?
Yes. We provide installation guides, torque specifications, tightening sequences, and special tool requirements for all parts we supply. For OEM genuine parts, we include the manufacturer’s installation documentation. Our Download Center has 300+ technical documents.
What information do I need to provide for a compatibility check?
Minimum: engine make, model, and the OEM part number or part description you’re considering. Ideally: engine serial number (for production-batch-specific compatibility) and generator model (for alternator-end parts). Photos of the existing part are extremely helpful.
Do you help with electronic engine diagnostics?
Yes. We assist with ECM fault code interpretation, sensor testing procedures, actuator calibration, and wiring harness diagnostics for electronically controlled engines (Cummins QS/QSK, Perkins 2000/4000 series, Volvo EVC, MTU ECU). We do not provide ECM reprogramming remotely — that requires licensed dealer tools.
Can you help me build a preventive maintenance program?
Yes. Based on your engine model, operating hours, ambient conditions (temperature, dust, humidity), and application criticality, we develop a customized preventive maintenance schedule. Includes: oil/filter change intervals, belt inspection frequency, coolant testing schedule, injector service intervals, and major overhaul milestones.
