PISTON/CYLINDER WALL CLEARANCE
MEASUREMENT
Used and New Pistons
With the micrometer set to the piston dimension,
adjust a cylinder bore gauge to the micrometer di-
mension and set the indicator to zero.

1. Indicator set to zero
Position the dial bore gauge at 16 mm (5/8 in) be-
low cylinder top edge.

F01D0KA
1. Measuring perpendicularly (90°) to piston pin axis
A. 16 mm (5/8 in)
Read the measurement on the cylinder bore
gauge. The result is the exact piston/cylinder wall
clearance.
NOTE: Make sure the cylinder bore gauge indica-
tor is set exactly at the same position as with the
micrometer, otherwise the reading will be false.
Ring/Piston Groove Clearance
Using a feeler gauge, check clearance between
rectangular ring and groove. If clearance exceeds
specified tolerance, replace piston.
NOTE: Ring/piston groove clearance can be cor-
rectly measured only on rectangular ring which is
bottom ring.
