Inspection and Service
INSPECTION1. Measure wear and taper in direction X and Y at three levels in each cylinder as shown.
Cylinder Bore Size:
Standard (New):
A or I: 86.010 - 86.020 mm (3.3862 - 3.3866 inch)
B or II: 86.000 - 86.010 mm (3.3858 - 3.3862 inch)
Service Limit: 86.070 mm (3.3886 inch)
Oversize:
0.25: 86.250 - 86.260 mm (3.3957 - 3.3960 inch)
Bore Taper:
Limit: (Difference between first and third measurement) 0.05 mm (0.002 inch)
- If measurements in any cylinder are beyond Oversize Bore Service Limit, replace the block.
- If the block is to be rebored, refer to Piston Clearance Inspection after reboring.
NOTE: Scored or scratched cylinder bores must be honed.
Reboring Limit: 0.25 mm (0.010 inch) max.
2. Check the top of the block for warpage.
Measure along the edges and across the center as shown.
Cylinder Block Warpage:
Standard (New): below 0.07 mm 10.003 inch) max.
Service Limit: 0.10 mm (0.004 inch)
BORING HONING
1. Measure cylinder bores as shown.
If the block is to be reused, hone the cylinders and remeasure the bores.
2. Hone cylinder bores with honing oil and a fine (400 grit) stone in a 60 degree cross-hatch pattern.
NOTE:
^ Use only a rigid hone with 400 grit or finer stone such as Sunnen, Ammco, or equivalent.
^ Do not use stones that are worn or broken.
3. When honing is complete, thoroughly clean the engine block of all metal particles. Wash the cylinder bores with hot soapy water, then dry and oil immediately to prevent rusting.
NOTE: Never use solvent, it will only redistribute the grit on the cylinder walls.
4. If scoring or scratches are still present in cylinder bores after honing to the service limit, rebore the cylinder block.
NOTE: Some light vertical scoring and scratching is acceptable if it is not deep enough to catch your fingernail and does not run the full length of the bore.
NOTE:
^ After honing, clean the cylinder thoroughly with soapy water.
^ Only a scored or scratched cylinder bore must be honed.
