6) Boring and honing
(1) If the value of taper, out-of-roundness, or cylinder-
to-piston clearance measured exceeds the specified
limit or if there is any damage on the cylinder wall,
rebore it to use an oversize piston.
CAUTION:
When any of the cylinders needs reboring, all other
cylinders must be bored at the same time, and use
oversize pistons. Do not perform boring on one cylin-
der only, nor use an oversize piston for one cylinder
only.
(2) If the cylinder inner diameter exceeds the limit after
boring and honing, replace the crankcase.
CAUTION:
Immediately after reboring, the cylinder diameter may
differ from its real diameter due to temperature rise.
Thus, pay attention to this when measuring the cylin-
der diameter.
Limit of cylinder enlarging (boring):
0.5 mm (0.020 in)
3. PISTON AND PISTON PIN
1) Check pistons and piston pins for damage, cracks, and
wear and the piston ring grooves for wear and damage.
Replace if defective.
2) Measure the piston-to-cylinder clearance at each cylin-
der as instructed in 2. CYLINDER AND PISTON 2-3b
[W5C2]. If any of the clearances is not to specification,
replace the piston or bore the cylinder to use an oversize
piston.
B2M0083
3) Make sure that piston pin can be inserted into the pis-
ton pin hole with a thumb at 20°C (68°F). Replace if defec-
tive.
Standard clearance between piston pin and hole in
piston:
Standard
0.004—0.010 mm (0.0002—0.0004 in)
Limit

4) Check circlip installation groove on the piston for burr.
If necessary, remove burr from the groove so that piston
pin can lightly move.
5) Check piston pin circlip for distortion, cracks and wear.
G2M0172
4. PISTON RING
1) If piston ring is broken, damaged, or worn, or if its ten-
sion is insufficient, or when the piston is replaced, replace
piston ring with a new one of the same size as the piston.
CAUTION:
“R”or“N”is marked on the end of the top and sec-
ond rings. When installing the rings to the piston, face
this mark upward.
G2M0624
The oil ring is a combined ring consisting of two
rails and a spacer in between. When installing, be care-
ful to assemble correctly.

measure the piston ring gap with a thickness gauge.

surface is damaged.

2) Check for bend or twist using a connecting rod aligner.
Replace connecting rod if the bend or twist exceeds the

3) Install connecting rod fitted with bearing to crankshaft
and measure the side clearance (thrust clearance).
Replace connecting rod if the side clearance exceeds the
specified limit.
Connecting rod side clearance:
Standard
0.070—0.330 mm (0.0028—0.0130 in)
Limit

4) Inspect connecting rod bearing for scar, peeling,
seizure, melting, wear, etc.
5) Measure the oil clearance on individual connecting rod
bearings by means of plastigauge. If any oil clearance is
not within specification, replace the defective bearing with
a new one of standard size or undersize as necessary.
