BORE CYLINDER
Tech Tips
Bore all 4 cylinders for the O/S piston outside diameter.
Replace all the piston rings with ones to match the O/S pistons.
Keep 4 new O/S pistons.

Using a micrometer, measure the piston diameter at right angles to the piston center line, the indicated distance from the piston head.

| 63.5 mm (2.50 in.) |
Calculate how much each cylinder needs to be rebored:
| Size to be rebored |
|---|
| Size to be rebored = P + C - H |
| P = Piston diameter |
| C = Piston clearance: 0.070 to 0.090 mm (0.0028 to 0.0035 in.) |
| H = Allowance for honing: 0.02 mm (0.0008 in.) or less |
Bore and hone the cylinders to calculated dimensions.
| Maximum honing |
|---|
| 0.02 mm (0.0008 in.) |
Note
Excess honing will destroy the finished roundness.
