biggerred said: (quoted from post at 12:04:03 08/14/11) Old 400 Im working on had a busted head that let water in a couple of cylinders. Tractor sat for a long while and pitted #4 sleeve pretty good, but the rest are good without even a ring grove. I had it running and had no smoke at all, but I've pulled the head after finding water in the pan. Ever just pulled out one sleeve? I can only find sleeves in sets of 4, but truly there is no need for a complete rebuild. I just don't want the pitting to eat the rings before their time. What do ya think?
You can buy a single sleeve and piston set, I can help you out if you let me know if it has stock bore 4" or overbore 4.125" pistons, and if they are the 4.125", are they flat top or domed pistons.
Edit I missread your post the first time, You can aslo buy just one sleeve a set of rings for one cylidner, but honestly it is cheaper to buy the "liner kit" for one Cylinder, with sleeve, piston, rings, and wrist pin.It's $20-$30 cheaper in most cases to buy the "liner kit" then to buy the sleeve and rings seperate.
