• Cracking marks and carbon deposits on
piston sides.
5. Inspect:
• Piston wall

6. Measure:
• Cylinder piston clearance
Steps for measuring the clearance of the
cylinder piston
First step:
• Measure the lower diameter “C” with a dial
gauge.
NOTE:
Measure the inner diameter of cylinder “C” in
parallel and at right angles to the crankshaft.
Then find the mean of the measurements.
• If this is outside the specified value, rectify
or
change the cylinder, change the piston and
the set of rings.
Second step:
• Measure the diameter of the piston skirt “P”
with a micrometer.
