Piston Pins

Piston pins are available in 0.002" (0.05 mm) oversize from standard diameter. If replacement oversize pins are needed, piston pin hole should be reamed out to correct measurement using suitable reaming tool. Use reamer fitted with pilot guide, take only small cuts at a time. Pin fit is correct when pin can be pushed through connecting rod hole by hand, with only light resistance.
