5-5. Cylinder Liner
a. General.  The replaceable type cylinder liner is
accurately machined and heat treated to provide a long
wearing, scuff resistant surface. A flange at the top fits into a
counterbore in the cylinder block and rests on a replaceable
cast iron insert which permits accurate alignment of the liner.
Compression  is  sealed  with  an  individual  laminated
compression gasket for each cylinder. The liner is cooled by
the waterjacket in block, and by the scavenging air furnished
by the blower, through air inlets in liner.
NOTE
If necessary, the air inlet ports may be
cleaned without removing the liner.
b. Cleaning the Installed Liner.
(1)  Remove the cylinder head (para 5-3).
(2)  Remove the air box handhole covers.
(3)  Install a cylinder liner hold down clamp (fig.
Figure 5-20. Compressing the piston rings.
NOTE
Compressors are not always wide enough
to compress six rings of this size at once.
If this is true here, compress the bottom
pair first, until they have entered the liner,
then move compressor to the top four.
(3)  Wipe clean, then lubricate journal.  Position
the upper bearing half (5, fig. 5-16) (the one with a short
groove at each parting line) in the connecting rod, and
position the rod and bearing half on the journal.
(4)  Note match marks on bearing caps.  Install
lower bearing half in bearing cap with tang of bearing half in
groove of cap. Position the cap and bearing, then install bolts
