4.3 Measuring piston ring end gap
Place the piston rings in a gauge or a new cylinder liner, and
measure the gap of each ring with feeler gauges. If the limit
is exceeded, replace all the rings as a set.
Note: Using a piston, push the piston ring squarely into the
gauge or the cylinder liner.

4.4 Measuring piston pin bore diameter and
piston pin outside diameter
Measure the piston pin bore diameter and piston pin outside
diameter. Replace if the limit is exceeded.

4.5 Measuring clearance between connecting
rod bushing and piston pin
Measure the inside diameter of the connecting rod bushing
and the outside diameter of the piston pin. Replace if the
limit is exceeded.
