I got a 2000 220, putting new rings and piston in it. The cylinder is in spec and looks great. Putting the new rings and piston in anyway. Question is should I hone it or just clean it out??
plated cylinders can be honed with a diamond hone, do not use ball or stone. If cylinders have a little aluminum stuck to them use muratic acid to get it off. Be careful though first of all its acid, second it eats aluminum. Use a Q-tip to apply in affected area, then work it with scotch brite pads. Eric offers diamond honing services.
