Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: The present disclosure, in one form, provides a process for remanufacturing a flanged cylinder liner, comprising the steps of machining a top portion of the cylinder liner to remove the cylinder liner flange, thereby creating a flange seat portion, preparing the top portion of the cylinder liner to receive a replacement cylindrical flanged sleeve collar, aligning the center axis of the cylinder liner with the center axis of the cylindrical flanged sleeve collar, placing the sleeve collar into contact with the cylinder liner such that the cylindrical flanged sleeve collar abuts with the flange seat portion and affixing the cylindrical flanged sleeve collar onto the liner.

Abstract: A fuel system for an engine is disclosed. The fuel system has a common source of pressurized fuel, at least one injection device, an exhaust treatment device, and a regeneration device. The at least one injection device is configured to inject fuel from the common source into a combustion chamber of the engine. The exhaust treatment device is configured to remove particulate matter from an exhaust flow of the engine. The regeneration device is configured to inject fuel from the common source into at least one of the exhaust treatment device and the exhaust flow.
