Caution
-
• If the piston is replaced, replace the piston, piston pin, and the snap ring as a single component.
1.Measure the piston outer diameter using the micrometer. The measurement position is 8.0 mm {0.31 in} from the lower end of the piston (area with no coating on the piston skirt) and in the thrust direction.

• If it is not within the specification, replace the piston.
-
Standard piston outer diameter
-
88.965—88.995 mm {3.5026—3.5037 in}
2.Measure the cylinder bore diameter. (See CYLINDER BLOCK INSPECTION.)
3.Calculate the cylinder-to-piston clearance from the cylinder bore diameter and the piston outer diameter.
-
• If the clearance exceeds the maximum specification, replace the piston or cylinder block.
-
Standard clearance between piston and cylinder
-
0.025—0.045 mm {0.0010—0.0017 in}
-
Maximum clearance between piston and cylinder
-
0.066 mm {0.0026 in}
4.Measure the piston-to-ring groove clearance along the perimeter using a feeler gauge. For the O-ring, measure the clearance with the O-ring assembled to the piston.
