Engine Block Cleaning and Inspection
Important: All remanufactured cylinder blocks are steel stamped on both sides of the fuel pressure pump boss. The stamp indicates whether the cylinder is standard or over-bored, and if the deck is standard or has been milled.

    <LI type=1>Inspect the crankshaft bearing bores and caps. The crankshaft bearing bore inside diameters should be round and uniform at all of the bearing supports. <LI type=1>Inspect the area where the crankshaft bearing inserts contact the crankshaft bearing bore. This area must be free of burrs and scratches. <LI type=1>Inspect the engine mount bosses. <LI type=1>Inspect the cylinder head gasket mating surfaces for pitting.

    <LI type=1>Inspect the engine block to cylinder head gasket surface area for warping. Use a straight edge and feeler gauge. Replace the block if it is warped more than 0.15 mm (0.006 in) longitudinally or more than 0.08 mm (0.003 in) transversely. <LI type=1>Apply sealer to the oil gallery plugs.

    Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
