(1) Check the clearance between the piston ring and the ring
groove. When it exceeds the limit, replace the rings, the
piston, or both.
Standard value:

the top of the piston head and pressing it in.
When it makes a right angle, measure the piston ring gap
with a feeler gauge. When the gap is too large, replace the
piston ring.

SERVICE POINTS OF INSTALLATION
MllTDAQ9. INSTALLATION OF PISTON PIN
(1) Insert the special tool, Pushrod into the piston pin and
install the guide A.
(2) Apply engine oil to the outside of the piston pin.
(3) Assemble the piston and connecting rod lining up the
front marks.
(4) Insert the guide A end of the piston pin assembled in
step
(1) into the piston through the pin hole on the front
mark.(5) With the piston top facing the front mark side of the
special tool, Piston Pin Setting Base and the piston front
mark facing up, set the piston.
(6) Using a press, install the piston pin.
If the installation load is smaller than the standard value
range, replace the piston pin (piston assembly) and/or
the connecting rod.
Standard value: 7,500 - 17,500 N (1,686 - 3,934 Ibs.)TSB Revision
