Engine Mount Inspection
Engine mounts play a crucial role in stabilizing the engine, minimizing vibration, and ensuring a smooth ride for your yacht. Over time, engine mounts wear out, causing excessive movement, noise, and even misalignment. At YachtService.me in Tivat, Montenegro, our skilled technicians offer a comprehensive engine mount inspection service to assess the condition and alignment of your mounts, ensuring your engine is securely supported for optimal performance.

Step-by-Step Guide to Engine Mount Inspection
1. Initial Assessment and Vibration Check
  • We begin by observing the engine's performance, focusing on any unusual vibrations or sounds during operation. This initial check helps identify symptoms of worn or damaged engine mounts, including excessive engine movement or noise, which could signal the need for mount adjustment or replacement.
2. Visual Inspection of Mounts
  • Our technicians visually inspect each engine mount, looking for visible signs of wear, cracks, or corrosion. Damaged mounts often cause alignment issues, impacting engine performance. We also check for oil leaks or fluid contamination, which can degrade rubber mounts and reduce their effectiveness.
3. Alignment Verification
  • Misaligned engine mounts can lead to uneven wear, excessive vibrations, and stress on the drivetrain. We use precise measuring tools to check the alignment of each mount, ensuring the engine is properly aligned with the transmission and shaft. Any misalignment is noted and addressed during the inspection.
4. Torque and Tightness Testing
  • We verify that all bolts securing the mounts are torqued to the manufacturer’s specifications. Loose bolts reduce stability, causing the engine to shift during operation. Our technicians ensure that all mount bolts are properly tightened for secure and stable support.
5. Compression Testing for Damper Condition
  • Many yacht engine mounts have integrated dampers to absorb vibration. We conduct compression testing to assess the elasticity and integrity of these dampers. Damaged or weakened dampers compromise the mount’s ability to stabilize the engine, leading to increased wear and potential misalignment.
6. Replacement Assessment
  • After completing the inspection, we determine if any mounts require replacement due to wear or damage. For older mounts or those showing significant degradation, replacement is often the best solution to restore engine stability. We offer marine-grade engine mounts to ensure longevity and optimal performance.
7. Mount Replacement and Realignment (If Needed)
  • If replacement is necessary, our technicians will remove and replace the worn mounts with new, high-quality options. During replacement, we realign the engine to ensure it sits perfectly with the new mounts, reducing vibrations and ensuring smooth engine operation.
8. Final Engine Vibration Test
  • After the inspection and any necessary repairs, we conduct a final vibration test with the engine running. This test confirms that the new or adjusted mounts effectively stabilize the engine, reducing noise and improving overall yacht comfort and performance.
