Cylinder Block: Boring, skimming & Sleeving

Cylinder block boring, skimming, and sleeving is a deep engine repair that fixes heavily worn or damaged cylinder walls. Constant friction from the pistons can scratch the cylinders or wear them into an oval shape over time, causing power loss and oil burning. Our machine shop bores out the damaged metal to make the cylinder perfectly round again, or we insert a new metal sleeve to rebuild a ruined wall back to standard size. This precision machinery gives the pistons a fresh, smooth path to restore maximum engine power.
