Removal Procedure

Start By:

1. Remove the cylinder head. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Cylinder Head - Remove".
2. Remove the pistons and connecting rods. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Pistons and Connecting Rods - Remove".
3. Remove the piston cooling jets. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Piston Cooling Jets - Remove and Install".

Note: Before you proceed with the removal of the cylinder liner, check the cylinder liners for wear or for damage. Check the inner diameter of each cylinder liner at the top, the middle, and the bottom. Check the inner diameter at two places that are 180 degrees away from each other. The maximum wear for the cylinder liners is 0.25 mm (.010 inch).

Note: An engine may have a high rate of oil consumption if the surface of the cylinder liners are glazed. Glaze can be removed from the cylinder liners by honing the bore of the cylinder liner.

1. Rotate the crankshaft in order to gain access to the cylinder liner. Place a protective cover on the crankshaft in order to prevent damage.
