Does anyone out there know what the Brinell hardness of cylinder liners should be?
I'm not the most wonderful of engineers but my brother bought me a Brinell hardness tester for Xmas---Why I don't know.
Anyway I tested an original liner and it appears to be About 300 to 311 Brinell.
The new liner that is badly scored has, using the same tester and idiot on the end of it, what appears to be somewhere lower than 108 (the matrix with the tester does not go lower than this).
So I am now wondering if my offhand quip about poor liner material may could have some validity,and where do I guarantee to get a better liner..John
