20100000090 | Method of manufacturing an engine block - A method for manufacturing an engine block, such as for an internal combustion engine, includes a step of removing material from a top deck of the engine block surrounding a cylinder bore to create a first removal area. Material is also removed from the top deck of the engine block surrounding at least one fluid passage to create a second removal area. An insert is positioned within a recessed area defined by the first removal area and the second removal area. | 01-07-2010 |

20150211436 | METHOD FOR REPAIR OF CYLINDER BLOCK INCLUDING WATER FERRULE - A method for repair of a cylinder block including a water ferrule having damage in an area proximate to the water ferrule is disclosed. The repair method includes removing material from the area containing and surrounding the damage. The method also includes providing a counter bore sized to surround the removed material. The counter bore is configured to define a seat at the one end of the water ferrule. A sealing member is aligned and introduced into the seat of the counter bore. The method includes aligning a stepped insert coaxially with the sealing member and the seat. The method also includes a step of introducing the insert into the seat of the counter bore to form an interference fit therewith. The method further includes providing a seal formed by a combination of the sealing member and the insert within the seat of the counter bore. | 07-30-2015 |

20140165396 | SELF-CENTERING SEAL - A self-centering seal for a counterbore with an inner passageway and a counterbore diameter defining a recessed area is described. The self-centering seal includes an annular shape including an aperture defined by an inner diameter matched to the diameter of the inner passageway, a circular outer edge having an outer diameter less than the counterbore diameter, a sealing surface at least partially disposed between the inner diameter and the circular outer edge, and a plurality of centering tabs projecting form the outer edge. The self-centering seal may, for example, be used in engine manufacture in conjunction with counterbores and inserts around fluid passages. | 06-19-2014 |
20140165955 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING AN ENGINE BLOCK - A method for manufacturing an engine block includes removing material from the top deck of the engine block surrounding a first opening to create a first recessed area, placing a first seal within the first recessed area, positioning a first insert within the first recessed area and against the first seal. The method may also include removing material from the top deck of the engine block surrounding a second opening to create a second recessed area that at least partially overlaps the first recessed area, placing a second seal in the second recessed area and positioning a second insert within the second recessed area and against the second seal. | 06-19-2014 |
20150107545 | METHOD OF REMANUFACTURING AN ENGINE - A method of remanufacturing an engine is provided. The method includes drilling a cylinder block to form at least one opening. The method further includes tapping the at least one opening to form screw threads. The method further includes securing a mounting boss to the cylinder block using the screw threads. | 04-23-2015 |

20130081589 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING AN ENGINE BLOCK - A method for manufacturing an engine block includes removing material from the top deck of the engine block surrounding a first opening to create a first recessed area, positioning a first insert within the first recessed area, removing material from the top deck of the engine block surrounding a second opening to create a second recessed area that at least partially overlaps the first recessed area, and positioning a second insert within the second recessed area. | 04-04-2013 |
20130097832 | Apparatus and Method for Replacing an Oil Pressure Regulating Assembly and a High Pressure Relief Valve Assembly - A method of increasing oil pressure in a heavy duty truck engine lubricating system is provided. The lubricating system comprises an oil pressure regulating assembly mounted in an oil filter base and having a main spring to regulate oil pressure, and a high pressure relief valve assembly mounted in the oil filter base and having a peak clipping spring to relieve oil pressure when the pressure exceeds a specified limit. The method includes the steps of replacing the main spring with a replacement main spring having a higher spring constant and replacing the peak clipping spring with a replacement peak clipping spring having a higher spring constant. A replacement kit for increasing oil pressure is also provided. | 04-25-2013 |
20130125854 | Oil Pump for An Engine - Embodiments of an oil pump for an engine have an increased pump capacity while maintaining or marginally increasing the overall physical size of the pump. In some embodiments, this increased capacity is reflected in a pump length efficiency ratio, which compares an effective gear length (L | 05-23-2013 |
