Fitting Pistons
- To determine if piston-to-cylinder clearance is within specification, measure piston skirt diameter .0787" (2.000 mm) from bottom of piston skirt, at 90-degree angle to piston pin. Ensure piston diameter is within specification. See PISTONS, PINS & RINGS table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS at end of article.
- Measure cylinder bore .47" (12.0 mm) below top of cylinder bore, at middle of bore and .47" (12.0 mm) from bottom of cylinder bore.
