Good looking job, Jim. I think the hone will work well. I used the same type for a gas engine
I have here. Has run well for many years.
Bob has the right idea for your honing lube. I used lamp oil, which I think is also kerosene.
I put it in a funnel with a thin tube attached to the small end and let it dribble through the bore all
the time I was honing. Obviously, an outdoors job!

Thanks Dean, Lamp Oil is renamed 300 test kerosene which was the old standard fluid used in Hartridge test machines for diesel injectors and fuel pumps. Called Lamp Oil for sale mostly to churches for their lamps and also because being highly refined, it has a very low smoke point, (your lamp glass doesn't blacken up so quickly as with ordinary kero).
Best Regards
Bob
