If Level I parts are properly replaced before they wear out, nearly 80 percent of major diesel engine catastrophes can be averted.

Diesel engine parts for Caterpillar®, Bobcat® and Volvo® construction machinery must be regularly inspected and repaired in order to ensure they perform for the lives of the machines. If small, replaceable parts are not are replaced when they wear out, larger and more important components will suffer damage and eventually fail. This is true for many machines, including excavators, tractors and forklifts.

Replace Diesel Engine Parts for Lifelong Performance of Heavy Construction Machinery

In order to ensure long lives for your heavy construction machinery and other equipment, it is imperative that you regularly inspect and repair your diesel engine parts. Like many other companies, Caterpillar® actually ranks its diesel engine parts in order of importance in order to create a hierarchy of replacement.

Level I parts like piston rings and valve guides should be inspected all the time for cracks or leaks. If they are replaced immediately, Level II parts won't suffer as much from wear and tear. If Level I parts are properly replaced before they wear out, nearly 80 percent of major diesel engine catastrophes can be averted.

Level II parts are items like camshafts and liners. These can be reused if properly cared for over time. Cylinder heads, blocks and crankshafts are the most important components and are classified as Level III equipment. They are hugely expensive to replace, given their integral roles in the engine's performance. However, they are made to survive through the life of the machine given proper care.
