The cooling moat may have a gap extending upwardly toward an inner running surface of the cylinder liner to supply coolant to an upper portion of the cylinder liner. The cooling moat may be provided at a location between the inner running surface of the cylinder liner and a groove for the upper cylinder liner seal.
