WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- Measure both the thrust and non-thrust cylinder diameter at 10 mm (0.397 in) below the deck. Record your measurements.
- Calculate the difference between the 2 measurements. The result will indicate out-of-round at the upper end of the cylinder.
- Measure both the thrust and non-thrust cylinder diameter at 100 mm (3.976 in) below the deck surface. Record your measurements.
- Calculate the difference between the 2 measurements. The result will indicate out-of-round at the lower end of the cylinder.
- Compare your results with the Engine Mechanical Specifications . If the cylinders exceed these specifications, the engine block may be oversized to 0.25 mm (0.010 in). There is only one size of oversized pistons and rings available for service.
