[Public-List] Replace/rebuild engine

[Michael Grosh via Public-List]

There has been damage. Scoring of cylinder walls could be the deal breaker.
Is that model engine sleeved? An engine rebuild without addressing scoring
is a waste of time. I'm not sure if oversize rings are viable for a diesel,
if you were to bore cylinders oversize. Might have to be a whole oversize
piston set, if not sleeved. Might also be possible to sleeve the currently
unsleeved block.
Losing all the oil in a running engine is about as bad as it gets.
