I decided to pull the engine and see what it looked like inside

Left to right 1 2 3 4 The center two pistons had rings that wouldn't have done much good

The oil pump working in the sludge that was in the oil pan really sucked the screen up tight

I removed the screen to clean and reshape

I cleaned the pump inside and out and pumped clean oil through it. Here with the screen looking like a bonnet

Score 4 for the sleeve puller

The crud was like a blanket around the rear sleeve

Some quality time with the pressure washer and it looks much better

The lower webbing cleaned with a flapper wheel so the o-rings have a good surface to seal

All the sleeves installed and the standout looks good
