(4)
The cylinder liner is alternately expanding and
contracting, during engine operation, due to tem-
perature variations. This may result in irregu-
larities in the block bores (out-of-round and
taper), the effects of which will be seen as high
pressure areas on the outside of the cylinder
liner.
(5)
If a new liner and piston is installed in the
block without properly fitting the liner, galling
and seizing of the piston may result. This is
caused by the new piston having to travel over
the irregularities without time to conform to
the particular shape of the block bore.
