(3) Piston and Connecting Rod
Piston Pin Bore I.D.
1. Measure the piston pin bore I.D. in both the horizontal and
vertical directions with a cylinder gauge.
2. If the measurement exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
piston.

Oil Clearance between Piston Pin and Small End Bushing
1. Measure the piston pin O.D. where it contacts the bushing with
an outside micrometer.
2. Measure the small end bushing I.D. with an inside micrometer,
and calculate the oil clearance.
3. If the oil clearance exceeds the allowable limit, replace the
bushing. If it still exceeds the allowable limit, replace the piston
pin.
