Depends on what they designed it to do in the first place! Read on to see how the IPD ISO process was designed from day one to make us a stronger, more consistent company – and we hope a better supplier to you. Link to IPDDB0007

NEW IPD ADVERTISING

A new series of IPD advertisements began running in various magazines internationally in November 2008 and will continue throughout 2009. Our new ads feature pictures that should gain the attention of those customers owning Off Highway Equipment, On Highway Trucks or Engines.
A central theme of these ads is “Cost savings without risk”.
	Other aftermarket companies offer cost savings, but what is the risk of reduced engine life?
	Some OEM’s offer Remanufactured cylinder packs, but again, what is the risk of using a core that you have no idea of origin or the hours already on the unit?
Since 1955 IPD has been providing equipment owners cost savings, without the risk of reduced engine life. If there is an issue, IPD’s comprehensive warranty is world renown as fair and honest. You can view these ads as well as all previous IPD ads at our web site www.ipdparts.com by clicking on the IPD ADVERTISING button.

As engine technology and component design changes it is important to point out slight differences in procedures over what you may have been accustomed to. This IPD Technical bulletin points out how to properly measure rod and main bearings common in today’s diesel and natural gas engines. Click here to view IPDTB-0018
