Before any major engine decision, Corona fleets need hard numbers, and we provide them in 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 box 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
- Blow-by measurement at the crankcase 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
- Fleet scheduling so Corona operators get answers without long downtime

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

## Pricing
A single-engine workup sits near the low end; extensive multi-fault diagnosis reaches the high end. Diagnostics billed at $285/hr.

## 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 Corona 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 warranted, so Inland Empire 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 Corona buyers know the real condition of a used box truck engine before they commit.
