Barrels - Inspection

1. The cylinder barrels are not measurable in service, (see Piston Specifications -
1200).

Barrels - Installation

1. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces of the crankcase and barrels taking care
not to damage the mating surfaces.
2. Fit a new base gasket and refit the locating dowels as noted during removal.
3. Using suitable spacers to support the pistons whilst preventing contact with the
crankcase, rotate the crankshaft to position the pistons level with each other.
Do not allow the pistons to fall against the crankcase when turning the engine.
Piston and/or crankcase damage could occur if the pistons are not supported
while turning the engine.
4. Ensure the piston ring end gaps are correctly positioned (see Piston Rings -
Assembly).
Note
Ensure the barrels and pistons are clean prior to installation.
