Wear limit:
Out-of-round (Difference between "A" and "B"): Refer to "CYLINDER BLOCK ".
Taper limit (Difference between "C" and "E"):
- If the measured value exceeds the limit, or if there are scratches and/or seizure on the cylinder inner wall, hone or re-bore the inner wall.
- Oversize piston is provided. When using oversize piston, re-bore cylinder so that the clearance of the piston-to-cylinder bore satisfies the standard.CAUTION: When using oversize piston, use oversize pistons for all cylinders with oversize piston rings.
Oversize (O/S): 0.2 mm (0.008 in)
