Cylinder Block Distortion
- Using a scraper, remove any old gasket material on the cylinder block surface and remove any oil, scale, carbon, or other contamination.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to allow gasket flakes to enter the oil or coolant passages.
- Measure the distortion on the block upper face at different points in six directions.
| Distortion limit | : 0.10 mm (0.0039 in) |
- If out of specification, resurface the cylinder block. The allowable amount of resurfacing is dependent on the amount of any cylinder head resurfacing. The resurfacing limit is [amount of cylinder head resurfacing] + [amount of cylinder head resurfacing] = 0.2 mm (0.008 in).
Cylinder block height : 214.95 - 215.05 mm (8.4626 - 8.4665 in)
