Piston: Service and Repair






NOTE: Before removing the pistons, mark their installation positions clearly on the piston crowns (as shown in illustration) using a waterproof felt-tipped pen.

CAUTION: Do NOT scratch or scribe the piston surface. This surface has a coating on it that must not be disturbed.





- Install piston using piston ring compressor.
- Arrow marking must point toward oil pump (front).
