for the aluminum lawn mower engines of today that do not have an iron bore,
such as a honda gcv200, what / how do they coat the aluminum cylinder bore with?
is it nikisil (i.e. silicon carbide) ?
Is it, does it need to be, different than the coatings used on 2-stroke cylinder bores?
Is it correct to say a good chainsaw, like a Stihl, that has a cylinder which I believe is (or was) made by Mahle was SiC (nikasil) ?
thanks.
