Pulled my head recently due to massive oil consumption and the exhaust valve guides are worn and being replaced along with the exhaust valves.

The engine has 200,000 miles on it and I'm wondering what you guys think of the condition of my cylinder walls. Does this look like normal wear? Is it still driveable?



Thanks,
Jeff

Pictures can be deceiving, but looks normal esp. For 200k/ no need to be concerned with IMO.

Can you feel it with a fingernail?

Very slightly.

I've seen them run perfectly fine with a lot worse than that. You are fine.

You could always use a spring-hone, stones soaked with oil and take the high edge off that score (this can't be seen, but it's there) 7 seconds at 400rpm or so and your done.
