Removing & replacing sleeves

[WAB]

What are the best methods for removing damaged OEM sleeves and replacing with used OEM sleeves?
Like removing some smaller 701 or 650 sleeves and replacing with 760?

Put the cylinder in an oven.
Turn up the heat.

Watch the sleeves pop out.

I think you have that confused with a turkey timer:biggrin:

Is that why the bird tasted so nasty last year....

280 degrees c for 20 minutes and they will drop out
if you the replacement ones in the freezer then drop them in at the same time

Great! Thanks alot. Got one other questions I'm PM'ing you about.

Does it need any sealant or adhesive on the outside of the replacement sleeves before they go in??

 

[waxhead]

No it doesnt
its an interference fit and thats how it seals

Dont they need to be machined after install or do you just hone ?

 

[Matt_E]

They need to be bored (if they're brand new)

Your sleves are on their way!!! Anyways, when I pushed them out of the gp1200 cylinder they were originally in I put it in the oven for about 20 minutes and they just pushed right out!

 

[waxhead]

i always bore and skim afterwards

After you put em in the over be careful when taking the cyl out. Those sleeve can put a nice dent in your foot. They are hot and heavy!
