Cylinder Liner
The present o-ring has been produced by two distinctly different manufacturing
processes. Following are those two methods
and the installation procedures:
The molded o-ring has a symmetrical cross section. The edges are rounded. It does
not require specific care in orientation of the o-ring other than normal prevention of
rolling the o-ring.
The lathe-cut o-ring has a straight outside with sharp corners. The inside has two 45-
degree chamfers (1) so there are no
sharp corners next to the liner . This o-ring
must be installed with the straight side (2) facing the block and the chamfered side
next to the liner . If the o-ring is not installed this way, liner bore distortion can
occur.
CAUTION
The liner s must be installed within 30 seconds after being lubricated with oil.
If the liner s are not installed within this
time limit, the o-rings will swell and be
damaged when the liner is installed.
Make sure the cylinder block and all parts are clean before assembly.
When acceptable reused liner s are installed, rotate the liner s 90 degrees from their
original positions in the engine. The
thrust and anti-thrust surfaces must face the
front and back of the cylinder block.
Use cylinder liner driver, Part Number 3824272, and a leather mallet to drive the
liner into the cylinder block bore.
If the liner does not seat properly, remove the liner . Inspect the counterbore seat
and liner for nicks, burrs, or dirt. Install the liner again.
The cylinder liner protrusion must be checked before installing the pistons and
connecting rods.
Use the cylinder liner clamping tool, Part Number 3824272, to seat the liner in the
cylinder block.
Place the force plate (3) across the top of the liner with the step inside the liner
bore.
Place the installation tool bridge (1) across the liner and install the two cylinder
head capscrews finger-tight to hold the
bridge down. Rotate the force plate until the
areas where the protrusion measurements will be taken are exposed.
CAUTION
Do not use an impact wrench to tighten the liner force plate screw. Excessive
torque will cause damage to the liner installation
tool.

Use a depth gauge, Part Number 3164438, to measure the liner protrusion at four
points that are 90 degrees apart.
[0.001 inch].
Use a feeler gauge to measure the liner -to-block clearance at the four-block casting
points.
