Illustration 3 g06137055
Acceptable
All parts should be inspected via borescope. If bearing caps are removed, attention must be paid to ensure that fracture faces are not damaged or mismatched. The oil passage bore should be clean and free of corrosion or debris larger than 100um. For bores considered to be of acceptable cleanliness and unacceptable cleanliness refer to Illustrations 2 and 3. If the cleanliness is acceptable, a rust preventative coating of clean 15W-40 engine oil should be applied to the oil bore passage and the connecting rod or the cylinder pack should be repackaged in the original packaging or used.

6V-3182 Brush or 6V-7067 Brush
If the cleanliness of the bore is unacceptable, a nylon bristled brush is recommended to remove any contamination. The Cylinder block cleaning and tube brushes are available through the Cat® Hand Tools and Shop Supplies catalog. The 6V-3182 Brush or the 6V-7067 Brush is recommended.
