Cylinder Block
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- 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 exceeds oversize bore service limit, replace cylinder block. See CYLINDER BLOCK table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS.
- If cylinder bore is okay, hone cylinder to obtain a 60-degree crosshatch pattern. After honing, wash cylinder bore with hot soapy water. Air-dry cylinder bore, and apply engine oil to prevent rusting. Using a feeler gauge and straightedge, measure cylinder block deck surface warpage. See CYLINDER BLOCK table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS.
