1) Visually check the piston for crack, scratch, wear, etc.
Specially, check the wear status of the ring groove.
2. Piston outside diameter inspection
1) With the outside micrometer, measure the outside diam-
eter.
2) The measuring position is 71.5mm from the piston lower
end, and the direction of measurement must be perpen-
