CYLINDER BLOCK
1.Remove gasket materials.
Using a gasket scraper, remove all the gasket material from the top surface of the cylinder block.
2. Clean cylinder block
Using a soft brush and solvent, thoroughly clean the cylinder block.
3. Inspect the top surface of cylinder block for flatness.
Using a precision straight edge and feeler gauge, measure the surface contacting the cylinder head gasket for
warpage.
Flatness of cylinder block gasket surface
Standard : 0.03mm(0.0012in.) or less
4.Inspect cylinder bore diameter
Visually check the cylinder for vertical scratchs.
If deep scratches are present, replace the cylinder block or process the piston to be oversized.
5. Inspect the cylinder bore diameter
Using a cylinder bore gauge, measure the cylinder bore diameter at position in the thrust and axial directions.
Standard diameter
86.70 ~ 86.73mm (3.4134 ~ 3.4146in.)

8. Select the proper piston related to the cylinder bore class.
Clearance : 0.02 ~ 0.04mm(0.0008 ~ 0.0016in.)
CYLINDER BORING
1.The over size piston is chosen on the maximum inner diameter of the cylinder.
The piston size mark is on the top surface of the piston.
2. Measure the outer diameter of the piston which is installed before.
3. Calculate the new bore size with the measurement in the step 2.
New bore size = measured outer diameter of piston + 0.02 ~ 0.04mm(0.0008~0.0016in.)[clearance] -
0.01mm(0.0004in.)[for horning]
4. Bore the cylinder to the calculated size.
Bore the cylinders in firing order to prevent the cylinders from be twisted by high temperature.
5. Stop boring and start horning for the proper clearance.
6. Measure the clearance between a piston and a cylinder.
Specification
0.02 ~ 0.04mm(0.0008 ~ 0.0016in.)
Bore all the cylinders with the same over size.
PISTON AND RINGS
1.Clean pistons.
(1) Using a gasket scraper, remove the carbon from the piston top.
(2) Using a groove cleaning tool or a broken ring, clean the piston ring grooves.
(3) Using solvent and a brush, thoroughly clean the piston.
Do not use a wire brush.
2. The standard measurement of the piston outside diameter is taken 14 mm (0.5512 in.) from the bottom of the
piston.

Standard diameter
86.67 ~ 87.00(3.4122 ~ 3.4252in.)
3.Calculate the difference between the cylinder bore inner diameter and the piston outer diameter.
Piston - to- cylinder clearance
0.02 ~ 0.04mm(0.0008 ~ 0.0016in.)
4. Inspect the piston ring side clearance.
Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between a new piston ring and the ring groove.
Piston ring side clearance
Standard
No.1 : 0.04 ~ 0.08mm (0.0016 ~ 0.0031in.)
No.2 : 0.03 ~ 0.07mm (0.0012 ~ 0.0027in.)
Oil ring : 0.06 ~ 0.15mm (0.0024 ~ 0.0059in.)
Limit
No.1 : 0.1mm (0.004in.)
No.2 : 0.1mm (0.004in.)
Oil ring : 0.2mm (0.008in.)
If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the piston.
5. Inspect piston ring end gap.
To measure the piston ring end gap, insert a piston ring into the cylinder bore. Position the ring at right angles to
the cylinder wall by gently pressing it down with a piston. Measure the gap with a feeler gauge. If the gap exceeds
the service limit, replace the piston ring. If the gap is too large, recheck the cylinder bore diameter. If the bore is
over the service limit, the cylinder block must be replaced or bored
Piston ring end gap
Standard
No.1 : 0.15 ~ 0.30mm (0.0059 ~ 0.0118in.)
No.2 : 0.30 ~ 0.45m (0.0118 ~ 0.0177in.)
Oil ring : 0.20 ~ 0.70mm (0.0079 ~ 0.0275in.)
