Connecting Rod Alignment
• Since the I.D. of the connecting rod small end bushing is the
basis of this check, check bushing for wear beforehand.
1. Install the piston pin into the connecting rod.
2. Install the connecting rod on the connecting rod alignment tool.
3. Put a gauge over the piston pin, and move it against the face
plate.
4. If the gauge does not fit squarely against the face plate, measure
the space between the pin of the gauge and the face plate.
5. If the measurement exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
connecting rod.

Piston Ring Gap
1. Insert the piston ring into the lower part of the liner (the least worn
out part) with the piston.
2. Measure the ring gap with a feeler gauge.
3. If the gap exceeds the allowable limit, replace the ring.

Clearance between Piston Ring and Groove
1. Clean the rings and the ring grooves, and install each ring in its
groove.
2. Measure the clearance between the ring and the groove with a
feeler gauge or depth gauge.
3. If the clearance exceeds the allowable limit, replace the piston
ring.
4. If the clearance still exceeds the allowable limit with new ring,
replace the piston.
