Flatness of cylinder block gasket surface Standard : 0.03mm (0.0012in.) or less

Clearance : 0.02 - 0.04mm (0.0008 - 0.0016in.)

CYLINDER BORING
1. The over size piston is chosen on the maximum inner diameter of the cylinder.

NOTE:
The piston size mark is on the top surface of the piston.

2. Measure the outer diameter of the piston which is installed before.
3. Calculate the new bore size with the measurement in the step 2.

New bore size = measured outer diameter of piston + 0.02 - 0.04mm (0.0008-0.0016in.)[clearance] - 0.01mm (0.0004in.)[for horning]

NOTE:
Do not use a wire brush.

2. The standard measurement of the piston outside diameter is taken 14 mm (0.5512 in.) from the bottom of the piston.

Standard diameter86.67 - 87.00(3.4122 - 3.4252in.)




3. Calculate the difference between the cylinder bore inner diameter and the piston outer diameter.

Piston-to-cylinder clearance0.02 - 0.04mm (0.0008 - 0.0016in.)

4. Inspect the piston ring side clearance.
Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between a new piston ring and the ring groove.

Piston ring side clearance Standard No.1 : 0.04 - 0.08mm (0.0016 - 0.0031in.) / No.2 : 0.03 - 0.07mm (0.0012 - 0.0027in.) / Oil ring : 0.06 - 0.15mm (0.0024 - 0.0059in.) / Limit No.1 : 0.1mm (0.004in.) / No.2 : 0.1mm (0.004in.) / Oil ring : 0.2mm (0.008in.)




If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the piston.
5. Inspect piston ring end gap.
To measure the piston ring end gap, insert a piston ring into the cylinder bore. Position the ring at right angles to the cylinder wall by gently pressing it down with a piston. Measure the gap with a feeler gauge. If the gap exceeds the service limit, replace the piston ring. If the gap is too large, recheck the cylinder bore diameter. If the bore is over the service limit, the cylinder block must be replaced or bored

Piston ring end gap Standard No.1 : 0.15 - 0.30mm (0.0059 - 0.0118in.) / No.2 : 0.30 - 0.45m (0.0118 - 0.0177in.) / Oil ring : 0.20 - 0.70mm (0.0079 - 0.0275in.) / Limit No.1 : 0.6mm (0.0236in.) / No.2 : 0.7mm (0.0275in.) / Oil ring : 0.8mm (0.0315in.)
