Good morning all.
I'm installing new TR3 cylinder liners this week. From the Service Manual, it indicates the liners should stand proud of the block top deck by about 0.005" and it shows how to measure this with a feeler gauge and straight edge. So, I'd apply the Wellseal, fit the figure eight gaskets, and install liners. Do I apply substantial pressure to the liners before I measure the liner/top deck relationship? Torque down head? Hand pressure? I assume that one needs to apply some pressure to top of liners to seat them prior to taking this important measurement. Thanks again the the forum for all the help!
