repower
Give new engines
To repower is to replace or upgrade the engine or power source of a vehicle, vessel, or machine.
A boat owner might repower with a more efficient outboard motor; a utility might repower a coal plant by converting it to natural gas.
The term implies giving new life or improved capability to existing equipment: We're repowering the old tractor with a diesel engine.
