svigarfarms Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Pulled injectors out of engine and was using a small honing tool to clean rust out of the head and a piece of the stone broke and fell in the cylinder. Will it crush and not do any harm???? Won't do that again!!!!! Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38458-object-in-cylinder/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmer52 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Honing stone is abrasive. Better remove it rather than run it that way. 1 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38458-object-in-cylinder/#findComment-274473 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearhead204 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 is part of the stone in there or a whole stone? do you have a bore scope ? if you have a scope I would look inside the cyl. and see if the stone landed in the cup of the piston, if so grab a piece of tubing and adapt it to a shop vac. and SUCK it out. I would clean the shop vac. first so I could see if I caught it. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38458-object-in-cylinder/#findComment-274476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
1958 F.W.D. Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Sure, you can run it with the stone in there, no problem. Just be prepared to do a cylinder kit a few thousand RPM's later.

svigarfarms Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 I agree however I took A pair of pliers to what was left and it is hard but just turns to dust when it crushes I will try the shop vac idea tomorrow .

farmer52 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 When the stone pulverizes, it is like pourning sand into the cylinder. It may be small but VERY abrasive. Like the FRAM commercial....pay me now or pay me later. 2 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38458-object-in-cylinder/#findComment-274510 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's ok, cylinder kits and turbos are not too terribly expensive..........
