Piston Pins

NOTE: Piston and pin are a matched set. Keep piston, pin, rings and rod together for each cylinder.
  1. Check fit between piston and pin by trying to move piston back and forth on piston pin. If movement is felt, replace piston and pin.
  2. To remove pin, warm piston and rod assembly to about 70°F (20°C). Press out pin using Piston Pin Installer/Remover (09221-25017). DO NOT  damage piston during removal.
  3. Check pin and piston pin hole for signs of gouging or excessive wear. To assemble piston and rod, reheat piston to 70°F (20°C). Align cavity on piston with straightedge on connecting rod. See Figure.
  4. Hold piston and rod in proper alignment. Coat pin with oil and insert into piston using piston pin installer/remover. Ensure there is no movement of piston on pin.
