Inspecting the piston
rings
- Alternately insert the three sealing
rings into the cylinder, in the area where
it retains its original diameter. Using the
piston, insert the rings perpendicularly
to the cylinder axis.
- Make sure that each single sealing
ring evenly adheres to the cylinder liner.
If it does not, this means the ring is
worn. Replace it.
- Measure the opening (see figure) of
the sealing rings using a feeler gauge.
- If higher values than those prescribed
are measured, replace the linings.
Check the size of the sealing ring
opening:
Compression ring: 0.15 ÷ 0.35 mm.
Max. value 0.5 mm
Oil scraper ring: 0.25 ÷ 0.50 mm.
Max. value 0.65 mm
Oil scraper ring: 0.25 ÷ 0.50 mm.
Max. value 0.65 mm
Rings/housing coupling clearances:
Carefully clean the sealing ring
housings.
Place a thickness gauge between the
ring and the housing as shown in the
drawing and check the coupling
clearances.
Top ring
Standard coupling
clearance:0.01÷0.06 mm
Maximum clearances allowed after
use: 0.10 mm
Intermediate ring
Standard coupling
clearance:0.02÷0.07 mm
Maximum clearances allowed after
use: 0.10 mm
Oil scraper ring
Standard coupling
clearance:0.01÷0.06 mm
Maximum clearances allowed after
use: 0.10 mm
Replace the piston if clearances exceed
the maximum limits specified in the
table.
