depending on how bad the scratch / gouge is, a stone hone or a ball hone may take it out. just dont get overzealous with it.

Poor thread title...

Decking the block means making sure the surface is level.

You need a bore/hone

Maybe he means the top of the sleeve.

go to ao hardware store, and get some emory cloth, the purple sand paper that comes on a roll.

and ever so slightly with some wd40 massage it down. if you think thats too aggressive, use some 3m scotchbrite till you cant catch it with your fingernail.

i dont think youll need to deck it.
