| In the case of excessive engine oil consumption or lack of engine power, generally this can be caused by damages due to the penetration of dust, or from normal wear. | ||

2 | Check the intake manifold and the ducts between the air filter and the engine, for penetration of dust. | A heavy dust contamination in the duct elbows indicates air intake without passing through the air filter. In engines with oil bath air filter, a fine layer of dust is permitted. | |
3 | Check the pistons and cylinder running surfaces for wear (damages caused by dust). | Check the contact surfaces of the piston skirts and the honing of the cylinders, to identify if the damages were caused by dust. | |
| Indications for the checking of damages in the cylinder caused by penetration of impurities. | In case of damages | |
Install new cylinder liner. | |||
