Our Hands-On Process

We Never Let It Sit & Rust

A used engine left exposed gathers surface rust fast — which invites problems and, left unchecked, can ruin it. So every order moves straight through our shop, start to finish:

  • Final Inspection
  • Careful Dismantling
  • Pressure Wash — strips road grime & surface rust
  • Palletizing & Metal Strapping — secured for freight
  • Photos Sent for Your Approval
  • Approved? We ship with full tracking
  • Not approved? No obligation — request an alternative or a full refund
See It Before You Pay In Full

Want photos of your engine on the pallet — from every angle — first?

5% Deposit today Applied to your final balance
  • Secure invoice & payment link within 15 minutes
  • You approve the photos before we ship — or full refund
  • Pay the remaining 95% only after approval

No obligation. The deposit simply reserves your engine and assigns the labor to prep it.

Match the 8th digit of your VIN to VIN B. Still unsure? Call us before ordering — we offer a 100% Fitment Guarantee when you provide your VIN. Verification is always free.
Our warranty covers replacement parts and the freight cost to ship the replacement engine if a covered defect occurs. It does not cover labor at your installation shop. Damage from improper installation, overheating, or lack of maintenance is also excluded. Up to 3-year extended coverage is available — contact us for pricing.
Total time from order to your door is typically 5–8 business days: 3–5 business days for inspection, photography, palletizing, and dispatch, plus 2–3 business days in transit. Excludes weekends and federal holidays. Free freight nationwide, palletized and insured.

If you provided your VIN at checkout and we confirmed compatibility, our 100% Fitment Guarantee applies — we cover return freight and refund you in full. If you ordered without VIN verification, our standard 30-day return policy still applies.
We specialize in sourcing and shipping quality used engines — we do not install. However, we can recommend reputable shops in your area. Just give us a call or email admin@autopowersource.com.
A Grade is our top quality tier. The engine has no cracks and no leaks, and passed compression, leak, and run testing. It is ready to install with no surprises.

Low miles when no one else could find them

I needed an engine for my 2008 Lexus and reached out to quite a few distributors. Everyone found one but they had too many miles and were very costly. AutoPowerSource gave me a few options — low miles and very affordable. Catherine walked me through the entire process.

They made it right when something went wrong

My original engine was damaged while being prepared to ship. Daisy worked to find a different engine quickly and worked with me on the difference in price. Just all around great to do business with these guys. I will definitely be back.

6-month warranty made the decision

AutoPowerSource provided a 6-month warranty as opposed to 90 days, standard with other sellers. Daisy took ownership and exceeded my expectations. If you want peace of mind, this is the company to use.

Warranty held up when the part failed

When my mechanic found a problem with the converter from shipping, I sent Daisy pictures and she got straight on it. She got a warranty refund of half the cost of a new torque converter and followed up all the way to make sure it was refunded.

Spoke with our mechanic to get it right

Customer service was very fast at responding and worked diligently to make sure I was getting the correct part. Even spoke with our mechanic, which was above and beyond. This felt like I had a whole team working to make sure I got back on the road.

Recommended the long block to avoid a known issue

They were able to help me with the right engine for my 2016 Ford Fusion and considered a long block for me to avoid future coolant intrusion.
