Re: Bored over?
Bill-if you're planning on doing all this work yourself (more power to you!)
do yourself a favor and mosey on down to the local bookstore. do through
all the books they have on engine rebuilding-even if they are for other
engines. you'll get some ideas and learn some of the lingo too. if you're
going to be pulling out the crank, you might as well replace all the main
bearings. you'll also want to hone the cylinder to break up the glazed
walls. you'll need to file down the gap on the rings so that they won't
expand and break when they heat up. when putting the rings on, remember to
install the gaps on consecutive rings 180 degrees from each other. before u
do any of this, ask a shop to check your injectors...

Excellent point on the injectors!!! I was just thinking about this about
10 minutes earlier.
Thanks for the book suggestion.

Re: Bored over?
Excellent!!!, one of the local shops can test the injector in question at
20.00 a pop. I'll take the suspected injector in there tomorrow and see
what they find.
