I have my heads off and I am looking at some easy to remove P&C's. I am thinking of getting new rings ($80) and using a "grape hone" in the cylinders.
Does that sould like a good plan ? or am I just wacko (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) |

yes use a wire wheel or something semi soft in a diegrinder or drill... and clean the top of the cyl. There is usually a ring of carbon built up where the rings stop traveling up the side of the cylinder.
And something I have always gone by... is that if you have to use a ridgeremer the cylinder isnt any good (bore out or replace). I used a sunnen ck-10 for years... my shop just got a rottler with diamond abrasives... wow... now I'm itching to do a motor again. |
