Piston to Cylinder Bore Clearance

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

Calculate by using diameter of the piston skirt and the cylinder bore diameter (direction X, position B).
(Clearance) = (Cylinder bore diameter) - (piston skirt diameter)

Standard: 0.010 - 0.030 mm (0.0004 - 0.0012 in)

Limit: 0.08 mm (0.0031 in)
