Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / Motor armado
Spanish term or phrase: motor armado
This comes from a description of what happened to a ship's motor when two bolts sheered on the connecting rods.

"A bordo se encontró el ***motor armado*** y las piezas rotas a un costado".

Does it simply mean the "broken" motor here? I know "armado" often implies reinforced, but I don't think there is evidence of any reinforcement of the motor in the picture on the pdf original.

Went for "found the engine largely intact" to get over the idea that it was mainly replaceable parts that were broken.

re-assembled engine


Explanation:
Assuming that the damaged parts were removed from the engine, I believe it would then be re-assembled with the new parts.
