Yes it can be done in situ.
The correct way is to use a liner puller which consists of a round dolly that is a perfect fit into the bottom of the liner but with a lip to catch the edge and with a hole in the centre to put a threaded rod through with a nut on the bottom and then a bridge piece above the block ,also with a centre hole for the threaded rod and a nut to wind the liner out.
Or,with no expense involved,a piece of good hardwood against the bottom of the liner and keep whacking it vertically with a hammer should bring it up out. You might find that the bottom groove in the block that the rubber seal fits into has corroded away... unless good antifreeze with corrosion inhibitor has been kept maintained in the cooling system...

Hi
I wonder if anyone can help me please
I have an international 454 D179 engine that has water entering the oil sump. I thought it was the head gasket leaking although it transpires it's one of the cylinder liners that has failed, either the seal of liner itself

Has anyone ever removed and replaced the cylinder linings and can it be done in situ. We have removed the pistons & conrods but am wondering how best to remove the linings.

Thank you kindly

Mark

Yes the liners will put out, you may have to make a puller to do the job.
IF you are very lucky and using a piece of hard wood, you can knock them out from below if not too tight.
Once the liners are out check the groove where the o rings sit for damage to the engine block.

Thank you kindly
This is very helpful
I was concerned that the linings would be really stubborn to remove ?
Thank you
All the best

Are you going to renew pistons and rings also?
When you get your new liners you might find 2 sets of seals
They are colour coded so be careful removing old seals as you need to look for a trace of colour

is that '3750' or '8750' written on the oil filter?

I’m going for 8750

Yes it’s 8750 on the filter,that’s the fuel filter but yes 8750 .

Can you repair the ta solenoid? Just replaced mine with one from a breaker ant £100 and it’s working. Can anything be done with the old one? News ones are now circa £1k which is hideous

It's very tidy for its age and hours.
