Regular servicing is the best way of ensuring your engine lasts as long as possible.
Missing service intervals can lead to reduction in performance, often a drop of 20 percent in performance can happen before the operator notices. It can even lead to a vital part failing, which is costly to repair and results in expensive downtime.
Each engine we supply comes with a detailed list of checks for you to carry out at set intervals. The performance checks required will vary by engine type and operating conditions, so it is wise to ensure the checks and frequency are right for your engine.
All the parts you need are available from your local distributor or online at the Perkins shop.
