Pitted cylender wall
Is there a product to repair pits in the tail section of the cylinder wall. It appears to be water damage
 The front 2/3s of the cylinder is in great shape. The engine runs great, doesn't seem to affect compression. Was thinking of J.B. weld and following up with a cylinder hone to true it up. Any suggestions?mike |

Re: Pitted cylender wall
JB weld will work.
Make sure that the surface is VERY clean, and hane after it's cured. Oh be sure that it is not in the way of the piston rings! |

Re: Pitted cylender wall
Let it be when the engine runs great, it doesn't harm the engine any further or you want to run it at max speed and power. JB-Weld will work, but you have to clean it very well. Excess can be removed by use of a piston ring.
