How to Select Piston and BearingEBS00ODY
DESCRIPTION
●The identification grade stamped on each part is the grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.
●For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimension accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the
measurement with the values of each selection table.
●For details of the measurement method of each part, the reuse standards and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, refer to the text.
HOW TO SELECT PISTON
When Using New Cylinder Block
1. Identify the cylinder bore grade (No. 1, 2, or 3) on LH surface at
the rear of cylinder block.
2. Select the piston of the same grade.
●The part No. of piston is specified together with the piston pin
as an assembly.
