  1. Measure both the thrust and non-thrust cylinder diameter 5 mm (0.20 in) below the deck surface. Record your measurements.
  2. Calculate the difference between the two measurements. The result will indicate out-of-round at the upper end of the cylinder.
  3. Measure both the thrust and non-thrust cylinder diameter 102 mm (4.00 in) below the deck surface. Record your measurements.
  4. Calculate the difference between the two measurements. The result will indicate out-of-round at the lower end of the cylinder.
  5. Compare your results with the engine mechanical specifications. If the cylinders exceed these specifications, replace the cylinder block.
