1. Check:
2. Measure:
a. Measure cylinder bore "C" with the cylinder bore gauge.
NOTE:
Measure cylinder bore "C" by taking side-to-side and front-to-back measurements of the cylinder.
Then, find the average of the measurements.
b. If out of specification, replace the cylinder, and replace the piston and piston rings as a set.
c. Measure piston skirt diameter D "a" with the micrometer.
b. 5.0 mm (0.20 in) from the bottom edge of the
piston
d. If out of specification, replace the piston and piston rings as a set.
e. Calculate the piston-to-cylinder clearance
with the following formula.
f. If out of specification, replace the cylinder, and replace the piston and piston rings as a set.
