Cylinder Block Assembly: Testing and Inspection
CHECKING CYLINDER BORE
- Measure diameter at three points in both directions: crosswise -A- and in line with crankshaft -B-.
- Use internal dial indicator 50 - 100 mm (2 - 4 inch)
- Maximum difference between actual and nominal diameter: 0.08 mm (0.0031 inch)
CAUTION: DO NOT measure cylinder bore dimensions while the cylinder block is mounted on the engine stand. The cylinder block is stressed and deformed by its own weight under these conditions and the measurements will not be accurate.
Piston and cylinder dimensions
Note: Replacement pistons are only available in the basic dimension.
