2 - 1 6 . CYLINDER BLOCK REPAIR (Cont‘d)
2. Installation of cylinder sleeves.
CAUTION Do not use cylinder sleeves to repair a cracked engine block. NOTE Cylinders that still show damage or wear after being honed to a maximum oversize of 0.030 in. (0.762...
That was also my first thought, but in 1989 the truck was still in Army service... so it must be done there. Just three years in Service. I guess less milage and than it make sense to do this.
If the block is the same as the 6.5, the oversized dimension shouldn't be an issue. I do not expect...
As I said in an accident with high levels of personal injury would be controlled but this is unlikely to happen in such a vehicle. Regardless of whether there is damage or not, from a purely legal point of view, I have to have the engine change to the newer 6.5l engine displayed and verified...
:unsure: Really - i am not so sure of this as Manufactures Oversizes end on this. And there are sockets availaible.
What is the advantage of further drilling or using sockets?
I am not the engine specialist, they will tell me what to do at least.
I do not need more bore or more HP. I just want...
any piston have also this verification and measurement of the bores said the same
it was already clear to me that a repair would take place here at some point. But I found no evidence, except the measurement, until my wife saw this painted sign. In mechanical engineering (my job) it is common...
There was only one left for removing the crank and camshaft. All bearings were in order but if we have already gone that far, the engine should be thoroughly cleaned and that is just bare
And my shopping list is getting longer and longer - because all or nothing is the motto now.
I was close...
Update:
Engine is now checked and at least found damage on two Conrod bearing shells on 7/8 conrod.
Although we did everything we can to ensure the oil flow and oil film everywhere at the start after a long downtime, this was unfortunately not the case.
Fortunately, the damage is limited to...

CUCVRUS yes corona has put a lot of strain on the economy. I notice it in my job in the metal industry (we actually have trouble getting shipping boxes... same like toiletpaper in the supermarket :ROFLMAO:) and also in May this year when I had to wait 2 weeks for standard suspension springs for...
You are right
Before our Volvos go to the Scrapper was they stripped on all what ´just still useable, never to got new and later sold part by part. Like the CUCV are the 9er Volvos Dinos in the car scene and much of them still running.
Volvo 745 Rollover was no more to save on it....
Volvo 945...
:ROFLMAO:
they are a special mementos what a small driving mistake can result ... Fortunately, only material damage without further involved. I have leftovers like these from all of my engine repairs - but I usually turn them into metal design gifts. Only just these not, because my wife don`t...
and that happened today with new cars with much electonic inside
Electronic factory immobilizer has failed and nothing works anymore ... or rather the display says: contact your workshop immobilizer unlock not possible.

young and inexperienced but still he ran again after the job - only to be crashed by a friend around 6 month later
Engine 1,6l and 68 HP - really much at that time for 20 years old young men on the road in germany
I had seen this manual before but ignored that it is for the HMMVEE, but when leafing through for troubleshooting I saw one or the other interesting note.
Until yet i had as reference the shopmanual which detailed shown all procederes, but it is for civilian versions and so in several things...
Regarding the fuel pump: that's exactly what I'm afraid of. So here again to get the wrong pump although the picture is the right one.
Milage - if i remeber right around 240000 Miles / 380000 km - remember long stock but in the years of service as main Truck comes a lot on it. (to reach work...
