Engine Repair Near Tavares, FL

Engine problems do not get cheaper with time. RJ Fox Automotive handles major engine repair at our Eustis facility, about ten minutes from Tavares on US-441 or SR-19 South. We work on all makes and models.

Common engine repairs we handle include head gasket replacement, timing belt and chain service, valve cover gasket and oil leak repair, water pump replacement, intake manifold gaskets, and overheating diagnosis and repair.

If Your Engine Is Overheating

Pull over. Do not continue driving an overheating engine. Overheating is how head gaskets fail and how cylinder heads warp. Call us from wherever you are and we can help you figure out how to get the vehicle to us safely.
