STIIL WORKING ON REBUILDING ENGINE AFTER BROKEN CRANKSHAFT. I PULLED THE SLEEVES YESTERDAY AND NOTICED THAT #3 AND #4 SLEEVES WERE HARDER TO PULL THAN #1 AND #2 AND ALSO 3&4 SLEEVES HAD A STRONG BURNT OIL SMELL AND WERE REALLY BLACK ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE SLEEVES. DOES THIS INDICATE ANYTHING? THIS IS THE FIRST TIME REBUILDING ENGINE, DON'T WANT TO MAKE ANY MISTAKES. THANKS.
 
i was just thinking that maybe they were not as tight fitting as should have been and oil got between the sleeve and bore and then just caked up from the heat. i have seen where the out side on some are blacker than others.
