Cylinder Wall Honing

NOTE:
- Before any cylinder bore is honed, all main bearing caps must be installed so the crankshaft bearing bores will not become distorted.
- To correct taper or out-of-round, bore the cylinder block.





1. Hone with the Engine Cylinder Hone Set, at a speed of 300-500 rpm and a hone grit of 180-220 to provide the desired cylinder bore surface finish of 18-33 AA.

NOTE: Honing should be done when fitting new piston rings or to remove minor surface.
