Got my sleeve and piston set for my 65 diesel today from this site. When I read the instructions it said to use glycerine, Stoddard solvent or other light sealing lubricant between the sleeve and the cylinder block. Well when I went to the local auto parts store to get some of this lubricant they looked at me with this really dumb look. So I am asking you folks for some help. THank you in advance.

I know some people who have used liquid soap! You just need to libicate to aid in getting it in. David's suggestion of engine oil will do also and is certainly compatible with anything around the engine.

Hi,
You will probably have an AD4.203 engine fitted to your 65. My MF manual says that the liner and bore should be coated liberally with clean engine oil. There is no mention of anything else. We have had no problems fitting numerous liners in the last 30 or so years. It is essential to clean the parent bore especially around the flange recess at the top. Place the liner in the bore upside down and using a straight edge check the amount that the flange is below the surface of the block face. It should be be between zero and 004". If it is any more than this you run the risk of the head gasket failing due to insufficient pressure on it around the sealing ring. Shims are available to give the correct position.
