Pistons, Checking
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• External micrometer 75 to 100 mm
- Take the measurement approximately 10 mm from the lower edge of the piston skirt and offset 90 degrees to the piston axis.
Deviation from nominal dimension: max. 0.04 mm
Cylinder Bore, Checking
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• Internal dial gauge 50 to 100 mm
- Measure diagonally at 3 positions transversely - A - and longitudinally - B -.
Deviation from nominal size: max. 0.08 mm.
• The cylinder bore must not be measured if the cylinder block is secured to the engine stand with (T03001), or else results may be incorrect.
