A sealer such as Loctite 518 is applied to the bottom third of the cylinder to keep it in place and to prevent oil from migrating up between the bottom end of the sleeve and the block. Anything that gets between the sleeve and block (be it oil, carbon deposits or even air) can interfere with good heat transfer. With water-cooled cast iron blocks, the general recommendation for installing dry flangless sleeves is to use about .0015Ë to .002Ë of interference fit.
Golfer's vasculitis. Golfer's vasculitis, exercise-induced vasculitis and hiker's rash, are names proposed by different medical researchers for a form of vasculitis resulting in a purpuric rash (bleeding from underlying tissues).

What is Vasculitis ? Vasculitis (vas-kyu-LI-tis) is a condition that involves inflammation in the blood vessels and is a family of rare autoimmune diseases that can affect people of all ages. Vasculitis means inflammation of the blood vessels, arteries, veins or capillaries. When such inflammation occurs, it causes changes in the walls of blood vessels, such as weakening and narrowing that can progress to the point of blood vessel blockage. The different types of vasculitis are classified according to the size and location of the blood vessels that are affected.
