I'm about to replace the rings and bearings on my 240U, along with the crank seals,and decided I'd send the engine out to be hot tanked "while I was at it". I hadn't planned to touch the camshaft and lifters, but just yesterday I began to think maybe I should remove them first just to provide clearer passageway. And now I'm wondering if hot tanking will affect the cylinder sleeve O-rings. Other than honing I hadn't planned to pull the sleeves. First time on this so I'm not really sure the best way to prepare, and the consequences of hot tanking. I could use some advice.
As always, the "while I'm at it" list keeps growing.
