How can I shorten this deary saga? Bought a junked MF3165, with the Perkins 212 gas engine. It had a bad case of hydrolock and then left to seize the rest. Sleeves didn't hone out as nice as you'd like to see them. So in the fight to remove them, all pistons are basicly shot. NO kits with pistons anywhere for this. Worthington said their kits did, but don't. Found a matching connecting rod on Ebay. So I've got rings and sleeves,etc... but it was such a fight to get the pistons out, I can't immagine those sleeves budging a bit. I am getting some used pistons from fawcett's in Ontario, have no idea what they will mike to, but I would feel better if I was using the 3 (!) new sleeves Worthington sent. But gettting dry sleeves out may be a trick someone one here knows... sorry for the length, and thanks in advance!
