(3) Piston ring side clearance
•
Fit the compression ring and oil ring in
the piston ring groove.
•
With a feeler gauge, measure side
clearance of each ring, and replace
either the ring or piston if the measured
value is beyond the specified limit.
(4) Piston ring tension
With a tension tester, measure piston ring
tension. Replace the piston ring if the
measured value is beyond the limit.
4) Piston pin inspection
(1) Wear
Measure the amount of wear on the piston
pin at the points as shown. The measured
