Piston-to-Cylinder Bore Clearance

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Infiniti FX50. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Calculate by piston skirt diameter and cylinder bore inner diameter [direction (B), position (D)].

A: Direction A

C: Position C

E: Position E

f: 10 mm (0.39 in)

g: 60 mm (2.36 in)

h: 125 mm (4.92 in)

(Clearance) = (Cylinder bore inner diameter) - (Piston skirt diameter).

Standard and limit: Refer to "CYLINDER BLOCK ".

If the calculated value exceeds the limit, replace piston and piston pin assembly. Refer to "CYLINDER BLOCK ".
