Default Re: Rust on Block Deck?

Excellent tool suggestion!


Copper gaskets with Copper Coat is my vote ... they come off without all the scraping.

Besides removing cast iron as mentioned ... in the past I have seen wires come loose from the wire brushes and get lodged in between piston and cylinder wall ... puts vertical grooves in cylinder walls ...


just my experience!
