FT1855 Block Pressure Test Group
Model: 1100, 3100, 3208
Warranty: None
• Used to check porosity of cylinder block in rebuilt engines (Engine blocks often
become pitted on outer wall of cylinder due to improper cooling system main-
tenance.Ifpittingbecomessevereandcylindersareboredoversizewhenthe

Application Procedure
• Aspartofthetestprocess,puttheblockontheoorwiththeywheelhousing
end on supporting blocks. Be sure all core and drain plugs are in place.
• Plug the oil cooler outlet
• Install the plate on each cylinder bank
• Fill the cylinder banks with water through the front water passages
• Install the small plates, attach the air pressure regulator, and introduce 100 to
310 kPa (15 to 30 psi) air pressure into the block (if porosity is present, water will
either seep or leak into the bores)
