Crankcase
Inspection and Service
Check all gasket surfaces to make sure they are free of
gasket fragments. Gasket surfaces must also be free of
deep scratches or nicks.
Inspect main bearing (if equipped) for wear or damage.
Replace crankcase using a miniblock or short block as
required.
Check cylinder bore wall for scoring. In severe cases,
unburned fuel can cause scuf
fi
ng and scoring of cylinder
wall. It washes necessary lubricating oils off piston and
cylinder wall. As raw fuel seeps down cylinder wall,
piston rings make metal to metal contact with wall.
Scoring of cylinder wall can also be caused by localized
hot spots resulting from blocked cooling
fi
ns or from
inadequate or contaminated lubrication.
If cylinder bore is badly scored, excessively worn,
tapered, or out-of-round, resizing is necessary. Use an
inside micrometer to determine amount of wear (refer
to Speci
fi
cations), then select nearest suitable oversize
of either 0.25 mm (0.010 in.) or 0.50 mm (0.020 in.).
Resizing to one of these oversizes will allow usage of
available oversize piston and ring assemblies. First,
resize using a boring bar, then follow these procedures
for honing cylinder.
