(c) Using a thickness gauge, measure the end gap.
1
Standard end gap:
No. 1
0.200 — 0.420 mm
(0.0079 — 0.0165 in.)
No. 2
0.500 — 0.720 mm
(0.0197 — 0.0283 in.)
Oil (side rail)
0.200 — 0.820 mm
(0.0079 — 0.0323 in.)
Maximum end gap:
No. 1

If the gap is greater than maximum, replace the piston
ring. If the gap is greater than maximum, even with a new
piston ring, rebore the cylinder and use an 0 / S piston
ring.

INSPECT CONNECTING RODS
(a) Using a rod aligner and thickness gauge, check the
connecting rod alignment.
•
Check for bend.
Maximum bend:
0.05 mm (0.0020 in.) per 100 mm (3.94 in.)
If bend is greater than maximum, replace the connecting
rod assembly.
•
Check for twist.
Maximum twist:
0.15 mm (0.0059 in.) per 100 mm (3.94 in.)
If t
wist is greater than maximum, replace the connecting
rod assembly.
(b) Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter
of the connecting rod bushing.
Bushing inside diameter: 22.012 — 22.027 mm
(0.8666 — 0.8672 in.)
