Today, stands for running in and testing internal combustion engines are actively used both at car service enterprises and in the educational process of specialized specialties of educational institutions. The article analyzes the stand KI-1363-V, installed on the basis of the department of technical service and repair of machines of the Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education of the Perm State Technical University, proposed and implemented measures for its modernization. In addition, a review of analogues on the market was carried out, as a result of which it was established that the purchase of a ready-made complex for testing internal combustion engines is economically unjustified. In the course of the work, a hardware and software complex (HSC) was developed and implemented, which allows automating the processes of taking performance characteristics from the engine under test and reducing the measurement error in order to increase the efficiency of using the test bench. In addition, the article describes the work carried out on the modernization of the test engine, implemented an engine management system with distributed fuel injection and electronic control. The electronic control unit for the engine and the stand and the specialized software "APK of the KI-1363-V stand" have been developed, which, in conjunction with the EFI Analytics TunerStudio software product, allows to implement a wide range of research and laboratory work related to tuning and characterizing the tested internal combustion engine...
