1. The most preferred cylinder block cleaning method is the "hot tank" method. All gallery plugs must be removed prior to hot tanking the cylinder block. If a hot tank is not available, soap and water is the approved alternative cleaning method.
2. Remove the gallery plugs. Remove the tappet oil gallery plugs. Remove the main oil gallery plug.
3. Apply a coating of High Strength Threadlocker to the gallery plugs and install.
4. Spray cylinder wall using Penetrating and Lock Lubricant.
5. Insert the hone into a cylinder and begin honing for three seconds at a cycle of two strokes per second. Remove the hone from the cylinder.
6. Wipe a section of the cylinder wall and inspect the Crosshatch pattern, comparing it to the neighboring (untouched) cylinder.
7. Repeat the honing process until the cylinder wall has a satin-like finish, or the maximum 25 strokes are achieved.
8. Clean and preserve the cylinder bores. Clean the cylinder bores using a mild soap and water. Dry the cylinder bores thoroughly using a clean, lint-free cloth. Soak a clean cloth in clean engine oil, and wipe the cylinder bores with the cloth. Drape a clean cloth over the cylinder block to keep contaminants out of the cylinder bores.
