D282 cylinder head cracks

deerelure · Feb 21, 2014

Does anybody know if small cracks coming out of the injector hole on a d 282 cylinder head are use able? Crack is on valve side of injector hole but does not come out of the injector hole?

Pressure test will tell the story .

They do not leak now the question is how much use can be gotten out of the head putting it back on the way it is. or should it just be replaced?

I have checked it passes a pressure test the found the cracks with maginete. trying to figure out if I should just tell customer to find a different one or if the crack is something that is normal and acceptable?

most likely would have no effect , but would have to have a visual look. post a pic.

Get the head checked. It will probably be fine. Almost impossible to find a 282 head that isn't cracked. I forget the reason why they get cracked so easily.
