I have a generator with a B/S engine. I am rebuilding the engine, it has an aluminum cylinder. What grit hone would be used to surface hone the cylinder before installing the piston and rings?
Thank you, Bill

B&S has chrome rings to use in an aluminum bore engine. These rings DO NOT require the honing of the cylinder walls. You can use the steel rings which were stock but honing is required. If you do hone the grit will become inbedded in the cylinder wall and MUST be remove by washing with a HIGH PRESSURE washing system like a car wash.

i dont hone aluminum cylinders and have good results.why introduce all that grit , then more grit when your rings pull off the hatchmarks if they will seat without honing.?if you do hone use i think very fine grit like 300 and lots of 30w oil. lucas
