Put the block in your BBQ at medium heat and the sleeves will just fall out at about 300F. After replacing a sleeve the bore may not be perfectly round nor will the deck surface be flat. Some machining work will likely be needed.

Do you need to marinate the block in anything prior to barbecuing ? ;) :silly:

On the subject of Kawi Blocks?? This is an old picture from the late 80's. I don't think anyone will know what this is??????
No one will believe me when I say what it is! Great brain teaser!
I should make a seperate post for this.
