Cylinders, Pistons and Piston Rings InspectionS7RS0B1406032
Cylinder
Visual inspection
Inspect cylinder walls for scratches, roughness or ridges
which indicate excessive wear. If cylinder bore is very
rough or deeply scratched, or ridged, rebore cylinder and
use over size piston.
Cylinder bore diameter, taper and out-of-round
Using a cylinder gauge (1), measure cylinder bore in
thrust and axial directions at two positions (“a” and “b”)
as shown in figure.
If any of the following conditions is noted, rebore
cylinder.1) Cylinder bore dia. exceeds limit.
2) Difference of measurements at two positions exceeds taper limit.
3) Difference between thrust and axial measurements exceeds out-of-round limit.
Cylinder bore diameter
Standard: 78.000 – 78.014 mm (3.0709 – 3.0714
in.)
Limit: 78.114 mm (3.075 in.)
Cylinder taper and out-of-round
Limit: 0.10 mm (0.004 in.)
NOTE
If any one of four cylinders has to be rebored,
rebore all four to the same next oversize.
This is necessary for the sake of uniformity
and balance.
Piston
Visual inspection
Inspect piston for faults, cracks or other damages.
Damaged or faulty piston should be replaced.
Piston diameter
As indicated in the figure, piston diameter should be
measured at a position “a” from piston skirt end in the
direction perpendicular to piston pin.
Piston diameter specification
Standard size (used piston):
77.953 – 77.968 mm (3.0690 – 3.0696 in.)

Piston clearance
Measure cylinder bore diameter and piston diameter to
find their difference which is piston clearance. Piston
clearance should be within spec ification as follows. If it is
out of specification, rebore cylinder and use oversize
piston.
NOTE
Cylinder bore diameters used here are
measured in thrust direction at two positions.
Piston clearance
Standard (used piston): 0.032 – 0.061 mm (0.0013 –
0.0024 in.)

mm (0.0004 – 0.0020 in.)
Limit: 0.161 mm (0.0063 in.)
Ring groove clearance
Before checking, piston grooves must be clean, dry and
free of carbon deposits.
Fit new piston ring (1) into piston groove, and measure
clearance between ring and ring land by using thickness
gauge (2). If clearance is ou t of specification, replace
piston.
Ring groove clearance
Piston Ring
Piston ring end gap
To measure end gap, insert piston ring (2) into cylinder
bore and then measure the gap by using thickness
gauge (1).
If measured gap exceeds limit, replace ring.
NOTE

“Fuel Pressure Check in Section 1A” and check each
possibly defective part. Replace if found defective.
a) Turn ignition switch ON to operate fuel pump and after 2 seconds turn it OFF. Repeat this 3 or 4
times and then check fuel pressure.
Fuel pressure specification
With fuel pump operating and engine
stopped: 270 – 310 kPa (2.7 – 3.1 kg/cm2, 38.4
– 44.0 psi)
b) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature, and measure fuel pressure at
idling.
Fuel pressure specification
At specified idle speed: 270 – 310 kPa (2.7 –
3.1 kg/cm2, 38.4 – 44.0 psi)
c) Stop engine, and measure fuel pressure at one minute after stopping.
Fuel pressure specification
With 1 min. after engine (fuel pump) stop
(Pressure reduces as time passes): Over 300
kPa (3.0 kg/cm
2, 42.7 psi)
6) After checking fuel pressure, remove fuel pressure gauge.
WARNING!
As fuel feed line is still under high fuel
pressure, make sure to release fuel pressure
according to the following procedures.
• Place fuel container under joint.
• Cover joint with rag and loosen joint nut slowly in order to release fuel pressure
gradually.
7) Remove special tools from fuel delivery pipe and fuel feed hose.
8) Connect fuel feed hose to fuel delivery pipe and clamp it securely.
9) With engine OFF and ignition switch ON, check for fuel leaks.
Fuel Cut Operation InspectionS7RS0B1704002
NOTE
Before inspection, make sure that gear shift
lever is in neutral positi on (shift select lever
is “P” range for A/T vehicle), A/C is OFF and
parking brake lever is pulled all the way up.
1) Warm engine up to normal operating temperature.
2) While listening to sound of injector (2) by using sound scope (1) or such, increase engine speed to
