Idling and heat strain power and cooling. We load-test batteries, clean terminals, validate grounds, and check voltage drop under accessory load. Cooling systems get pressure tests, belt and hose inspections, fan drive checks, and coolant quality readings. This prevents derates, protects aftertreatment, and keeps engines healthy.
