Cylinder Block

  1. Using a straightedge and feeler gauge, check cylinder block head gasket surface for warpage. If more than .005" (.13 mm) of metal must be removed, replace cylinder block.
  2. Check cylinder bore for wear, taper, out-of-round and piston fit. Machine or replace as necessary. See ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS tables at end of this article.
NOTE: Some oil gallery plugs are drilled to feed oil onto timing chain and distributor. Note position for reinstallation.
