CHECKING THE CYLINDER AND PISTON
1. Check:
8
piston wall
8
cylinder wall
Vertical scratches
J
Replace the cylin-
der, and the piston and piston rings as a
set.
2. Measure:
8
piston-to-cylinder clearance
*****************************************************
a. Please carry out the following inspections:
8
cylinder
Measure the piston pin in both of its hori-
zontal axis direction a and its right angle
direction b at six positions of A, B, C, etc.
with a cylinder gauge.
Abrasion = Max. value - min. value as
measured at those six positions
When abrasion is beyond limit
J
Replace
it
Standard value of cylinder inner di-
ameter
52.40~52.41mm (2.063~2.064 in)
Service limit of cylinder inner diam-
eter
52.5mm (2.067 in)
b. If out of specification, replace the cylinder,
and the piston and piston rings as a set.
c. Measure piston skirt diameter “P” with the
micrometer.
a
3.5 mm(0.138 in) from the bottom edge of
the piston
Piston size “P”
51.470 ~ 51.510 mm(2.026~ 2.028 in)
d. If out of specification, replace the piston and
piston rings as a set.
e. Calculate the piston-to-cylinder clearance
with the following formula.
Piston-to-cylinder clearance =
Cylinder bore “C” - Piston skirt diameter “P”
Piston-to-cylinder clearance
0.01 ~ 0.03 mm(0.0004~0.0012 in)
<Limit>: 0.15 mm(0.006 in)
f. If out of specification, replace the cylinder,
and the piston and piston rings as a set.
