Cylinder Block Warpage






Using a straight-edge and feeler gauge, check that the upper surface of the cylinder block is not warped.

CAUTION:
- Be very careful not to allow any material to accidentally drop into the upper surface of the cylinder block.
- Be very careful not to scratch the upper surface of the cylinder block.
- The cylinder block must be reground or replaced if the warpage exceeds the limit.
