Cylinder Ridge Removal
NOTE:
You must remove cylinder ridges before removing the piston and connecting rod
assemblies.
1. Rotate the crankshaft until the piston is at the bottom of its travel.
2. Cover the head of the piston with a rag.
3. Follow the tool manufacturers' instructions and cut away the ridge, exercising
extreme care to avoid cutting too deeply.
4. Remove the ridge reamer, the rag and as many of the cuttings as possible.
Inspection
Check the engine for cracks. Perform a visual inspection on all of the components. Some
reliable methods for inspecting for cracks include Magnaflux® a magnetic process or
Zyglo®, a dye penetrant. Magnaflux is used only on ferrous metal (cast iron). Zyglo uses a
spray on fluorescent mixture along with a black light to reveal the cracks and is suitable for
aluminum engine components.
Crankshaft Bearing Alignment
Inspect all the main bearing saddles and caps for damage, burrs or high spots. If damage
is found, and was caused by a spun main bearing, the block will need to be align-bored or,
if severe enough, replaced. Any burrs or high spots should be carefully removed with a de-
burring tool.
Place a machinist’s straight edge along the bearing saddles in the engine block. If any
clearance exists between the machinist’s straight edge and the saddles, the block must be
align-bored.
Align-boring consists of machining the main bearing saddles and caps by means of a fly
cutter that runs through the bearing saddles.
Deck Flatness
Ensure that the deck surface is clear of dirt, carbon deposits and old gasket material.
Place a machinist’s straight edge across the surface of the deck along its centerline.
Check the clearance along several points using feeler gau
ges. . Move the machinist’s
straight edge diagonally across the deck surface and check clearances along the diagonal
line. If the reading exceeds 0.003 in. (0.076 mm) within a 6.0 inch (15.2 cm) span, or 0.006
in. (0.152 mm) over the total length of the deck, it must be machined.
Cylinder Bores
The cylinder bores are slightly larger than the pistons themselves. A common piston-to-
bore clearance is 0.0015 - 0.0025 in. (0.0381 - 0.0635 mm). Inspect and measure the
cylinder bores. All bores should be checked for out-of-roundness, taper and size. The
