Nikasil
®
is a surface protection layer for a coating procedure
developed by Mahle. The name is derived from the two materials
used in this procedure - a layer of nickel into which is embedded
the particularly hard silicone carbide.
The most important advantages of the
Nikasil
®
coating are very
good heat conductivity, resulting in much improved performance,
low wear, and a lightweight cylinder.

- Check the cylinder bearing surface for damage.
If the cylinder bearing surface is damaged:
- Change the cylinder and piston.
- Measure the cylinder diameter at several locations on
the 0- and 0-axes using a micrometer to identify oval
wear.
Guideline
Cylinder - drill hole diameter
Size I
88.000 ... 88.012 mm
(3.46456 ... 3.46503 in)
Size II
88.012 ... 88.025 mm
(3.46503 ... 3.46554 in)
Info
The cylinder size
O
is marked on the cylinder collar.
- Using a straightedge and the special tool, check the sealing
area of the cylinder head for distortion.
