Piston: Testing and Inspection
1. Check the piston for distortion or cracks.
NOTE: If the cylinder is bored, an oversized piston must be used.
2. Measure the piston diameter at a point 16 mm (0.6 inch) from the bottom of the skirt.
NOTE: There are two standard-size pistons (No Letter or A, and B). The letter is stamped on the top of the piston. Letters are also stamped on the
block as cylinder bore sizes.
3. Calculate the difference between the cylinder bore diameter and piston diameter.
If the clearance is near or exceeds the service limit, inspect the piston and cylinder block for excessive wear.
