Checking pistons
Measure approx. 52 mm from crown of pis-
ton, 90' offset to axis of piston bolt.
Checking cylinder bore
Measure approx. 52 mm from top edge of
cylinder bore, across cylinder block.
For measurement, mount lower crankcase
section and tighten with prescribed tightening
torque.
Note
It is recommended that the stocks of the relevant tolerance group are checked before
machining
the cylinders. If necessary, hone to the piston size available.
In some cases, certain tolerance groups may be in short supply.
