WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 1995 Jeep Wrangler, 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 1995 Jeep Cherokee, 1994 Jeep Wrangler, and 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Thoroughly clean all gasket surfaces. Using a tap, clean head bolt holes. Clean oil gallery by blowing compressed air into oil filter adapter, filter by-pass, oil gallery and crankshaft oil feed holes.
  2. Measure cylinder bore diameter crosswise to cylinder block about 1/2" below top of bore. Repeat measurement at bottom of bore. Subtract smaller diameter from larger diameter to determine taper. Repeat measurements for each cylinder.
  3. Repeat measurements with measuring device rotated 120 degrees. Repeat this step for a total of 3 measurements. Cylinder out-of-round is difference between measurements. Repeat for each cylinder.
  4. Bore and hone cylinders for oversize pistons if taper or out-of-round exceeds specification. Move hone up and down to provide a 60-degree crosshatch pattern. DO NOT use a rigid hone or exceed 10 strokes per cylinder. See CYLINDER BLOCK  table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS.
