Working on a farmall 400 engine. Started out it had a knock and found piston ring broke and some how got hast the wrist pin and gouged the sleeve. I replaced the piston, sleeve and rings. When I honed out the other sleeves I found number 3 looked like it had a crack in it. I pulled the sleeve and found what looked like a crack in the block. Picture one kinda shows it.
I attempted to trying some loctite lose fit sealant. In this fruitless attempt I cracked the sleeve installing it and pulled the sleeve pack out, hone the cylinder wall and found which looked like a bigger crack else where to the right of original crack.
After looking at the pictures myself I am beginning to wonder if the crack maybe some of the loctite not completely honed off. Since this is a dry sleeve application do you think a new sleeve would solve my problem.
