In a wet cylinder liner the coolant of the engine runs in a space between the liner and the engine block. This gives excellent cooling, but is quite tricky to make good seal, particularly at the crank end of the cylinder.

In a dry liner the coolant runs in channels in the block, and the liner is only like a sleeve stuck in a metal hole. Poorer cooling, but an easier build.

What is the anti polishing ring?

Anti-polishing rings are used to prevent carbon build-up in the cylinder liner. The carbon polishes the cylinder liner leaving it with a smooth surface. A smooth cylinder liner is bad because the lube oil won't be able to stick to the liner.

Explain in detail cylinder liner wear?

Cylinder liner wear refers to the gradual degradation of the inner surface of a cylinder in an engine, primarily caused by friction between the piston and the liner. Factors contributing to this wear include poor lubrication, abrasive contaminants in the oil, and thermal stress from combustion. Over time, this wear can lead to increased oil consumption, reduced engine efficiency, and compromised performance. Monitoring and maintaining optimal lubrication and using quality engine oils can help mitigate cylinder liner wear.

How a cylinder liner is made?

A cylinder liner is typically made through a process called casting, where molten metal is poured into a mold shaped like the liner. Common materials include cast iron or aluminum alloys, which provide the necessary strength and durability. After cooling, the liner undergoes machining processes such as boring and honing to achieve precise dimensions and a smooth surface finish. Finally, quality control checks ensure that the liner meets specifications for performance and durability in an engine.

What is the difference between a shower curtain and a shower curtain liner?

A shower curtain is for decor and hung on the outside of the bathtub/shower. Whereas a shower curtain liner is hung on the inside of the tub/shower to protect the shower curtain. In simpler terms...SHOWER CURTAIN: gets to hang and look pretty and be dry. SHOWER CURTAIN LINER: protects shower curtain from getting wet because it's the one getting wet!

What size motor came out in a case 850 crawler and what makes it blow oil from value cover but stays full of oil?

You have a bad cylinder liner...water leaks into the liner and boils off with the combustion byproducts. remove the head and the liners and replace any defective or worn liners.. usually best to put a complete liner kit in it. most of the 850's used the 6T590 6 cylinder Turbo Charged Cummins Engine.
