PROCEDURE
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.
Prepare 4 new O/S pistons.

| *a | Size Mark |
| *b | Piston Pin Hole Inside Diameter Mark |
| *c | Front Mark (Arrow) |
| *d | Distance |
Using a micrometer, measure the piston diameter according to the following conditions: 1) measure at a right angle to the piston center line, and 2) measure at the indicated distance from the piston head.
| Standard distance |
|---|
| 63 mm (2.48 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: 0.07 to 0.09 mm (0.00276 to 0.00354 in.) |
| H = Allowance for honing: 0.02 mm (0.000787 in.) or less |
Bore and hone the cylinders to the calculated dimensions.
| Maximum honing |
|---|
| 0.02 mm (0.000787 in.) |
Note
Excess honing will destroy the finished roundness.
