Checking Cylinder Bore Diameter: Checking
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1999 Volkswagen Jetta, 1998 Volkswagen Jetta, 1997 Volkswagen Jetta, 1996 Volkswagen Passat, and 1996 Volkswagen Jetta. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Measure bore at 3 positions in both lateral (arrow -A-) and longitudinal (arrow -B-) directions, as illustrated.
Deviation from nominal dimension: 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.) maximum
CAUTION:
Do not have the cylinder block mounted to the assembly stand while measuring the cylinder bores. The block is deformed under it's own weight under these conditions and the stress will result in false measurements that are not accurate after the tension has been relieved.
