Do you mean a glaze breaker? I've never heard of it referred to as a "dingle-berry" hone, LOL.
I agree with
smokedchevy. Do a quick bore check to make sure it's not too worn. I personally wouldn't hone it though. It's not a snowmobile so you can't just take the jugs off, and if you use a stone glaze breaker you'll have crap dropping into your cylinders. If your cylinders are not straight, or the are worn more than a couple thousandths, I'd send it out and have it bored.
Well, I suppose if worse comes to worse you could always cover the bottom of the bore with a rag and clean the cylinder walls when you are done honing, since the rings never see the bottom of the bore anyway.
