Cylinder Block

  1. Measure cylinder block deck surface warpage. Service limit is 0.004" (0.10 mm). Measure cylinder bore out-of-round and taper. If either out-of-round or taper exceeds 0.002" (0.05 mm), bore cylinder for oversize pistons. If any cylinder exceed oversize bore service limit, replace cylinder block. See CYLINDER BLOCK  table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS.
  2. If cylinder block is okay, hone cylinders to obtain a 60-degree crosshatch pattern. After honing, wash cylinder bores with hot soapy water. Air-dry cylinder bores, and apply engine oil to prevent rusting.
