Replacing a **cylinder liner** is a critical procedure in engine maintenance, especially for large diesel engines. The liner, also known as a **sleeve**, provides a wear-resistant surface for the piston to move within the cylinder block. ### **Steps for Cylinder Liner Replacement** #### **1. Preparation** - Ensure the engine is cool and disconnected from power sources. - Drain coolant and lubricating oil. - Remove the cylinder head, piston, and connecting rod. #### **2. Removing the Old Liner** - Use a **liner puller** or hydraulic press to extract the old liner. - Inspect the cylinder block for any damage or corrosion. - Clean the cylinder bore thoroughly. #### **3. Inspect and Prepare the New Liner** - Check the **inner and outer diameter** of the new liner. - Ensure proper interference fit or **counter bore depth** if applicable. - Apply anti-corrosion oil to the liner surface. #### **4. Installing the New Liner** - If a **wet liner**, apply **rubber seals** or O-rings. - Press the liner into place using a liner installation tool. - Ensure proper alignment and seating. #### **5. Final Checks** - Measure **protrusion** (liner height above block surface). - Reinstall the piston, connecting rod, and cylinder head. - Refill oil and coolant, then test for leaks.
