Piston Pin: Service and Repair

Installing Pressure 8 kilo Newton (1800 lbs).

The piston pin to connecting rod is press-fit. The pin is larger than the hole in the connecting rod. If the pressure to press the pin into place is significantly less than the specification, the interferance fit is too small. If the pressure is significantly greater, then the interference is too large.
