SNO-290



NOTE: If out of specification, replace the crankcase

and the piston and piston rings as a set.

Measuring Piston Pin Bore
Diameter



NOTE: It may be necessary to use Piston Pin Puller

to remove the piston pins.

1. Insert an inside dial indicator into the piston-pin

bore. Take two measurements to ensure accuracy.

2. Piston pin bore must be within 0.7482-0.7486 in.

SNO-291

Measuring Piston Pin Diameter

Measure the piston pin diameter at each end and in the

center. Measurement must be within 0.7477-0.7480 in. If

measurement is not within specifications, the piston pin

must be replaced.

SNO-292

Installing Piston Rings

1. Install the piston rings according to the illustration

below. Stagger the end gaps of the upper and lower

thin oil rings until they are on directly opposite sides

of the piston.

SNO-293A



NOTE: Be sure to install the piston rings so that the

manufacturer marks (A) face up.

2. Rotate the rings until the ring end gaps are 120° from

one another.

SNO-294A

CRANKSHAFT RUNOUT

1. Support the crankshaft using a set of V Blocks; use a

dial indicator to read crankshaft runout.

Taper Limit (T)

0.050 mm (0.0020 in.)

Out of Round (R)

0.050 mm (0.0020 in.)

“C” = maximum of D1 - D6

“T” = maximum of D1 or D2 – maximum of D5 or D6

“R” = maximum of D1 D3 or D5 – maximum of D2, D4, or D6

CAUTION

Incorrect installation of the piston rings will result in
engine damage.
