Cylinder Wall Honing

NOTE:
^ Before any cylinder bore is honed, all main bearing caps must be installed so that the crankshaft bearing bores will not become distorted.
^ To correct taper or out-of-round, bore the cylinder block.
^ Honing should be done when fitting new piston rings or to remove minor surface.





Hone with Engine Cylinder Hone Set, at a speed of 300-500 rpm and a hone grit of 180-220 to provide the desired cylinder bore surface finish of 18-38 AA.
