Causes of Cylinder Liner Wear and Replacement Criteria
Cylinder liner wear occurs due to insufficient lubrication, incorrect piston ring selection, high temperatures, and the presence of foreign particles. As a result of wear, compression loss, increased oil consumption, and reduced performance occur.
Ovality, surface scratches, and measurements outside tolerance are the main criteria indicating that the cylinder liner needs to be replaced. Professional measurement and the correct liner selection directly affect the success of the engine overhaul.
