Piston Pin Bore Inspection
A—Pin
B—Tapered Bore
C—Opposite Side of Bore
NOTE: Piston pin must be in good condition and not worn
beyond specification given below.
1. Dip piston pin in clean engine oil.
NOTE: On 6125 engines, assemble piston crown and
skirt.
2. Install pin (A) through piston.
Pin should pass through piston using only light thumb
pressure.
3. Check taper in piston pin bore by inserting pin from
both sides. If pin enters freely, but binds in the center,
the bore could be tapered (B).
4. Insert pin in piston to check for bore alignment. Pin
should not “click” or need to be forced into bore on
opposite side (C).
5. Measure piston pin and piston bore and compare to
specifications. If either are not within specification,
replace pin, piston, and liner.
