B7100 Low Compression

[North Idaho Wolfman]

Thank you for the reply and link. If the cylinders are in spec would it be best to pull the block and hone the sleeves prior to new pistons and rings?

You wouldn't need to pull the block to hone it, you can do it in the tractor.
You need to use a compression hone and not a ball home or a spring hone to do it.
If you go that route I can tell you where to get one.

Thanks Mr. Wolfman. Not having to pull the block and using a compression hone sounds like a ton of less work. Yes, please let me know where I can get that hone.
