AR03.10-P-7311-02VT Measure piston ring end clearance

Check values for piston rings:

Commercially available tools:

Piston ring end gap measurement:

1 Clean cylinder wall.
2 Insert the two compression rings one after the other into the unworn area of the cylinder barrel and measure the end gap with a feeler gauge.

If the end gap is beyond the permissible tolerance, replace the compression rings.

The gap clearance of the oil scraper ring cannot be checked because of its three-part design. The oil scraper ring must also be replaced when the compression rings are replaced.
