A technician is installing wet cylinder liners in a heavy-duty diesel block. Each liner must be measured for protrusion above the block deck before the cylinder head is installed. What is the main purpose of the specified liner protrusion?
-
A
It sets piston-to-head clearance at top dead center
-
B
It compensates for liner wear so the bores can be rebored later
-
C
It lets the head gasket clamp the liner flange so the liner seals against coolant and combustion leakage
-
D
It keeps the liner from rotating in the block
