3.6.19. CHECKING PISTON POSITION
• Temporarily fit cylinder on piston, without bottom gas-
ket.
• Install a dial gauge on special tool.
Dial gauge holder: 8140266
• Reset dial gauge on a reference surface. With dial
gauge set at zero, fit tool on cylinder and lock it in
place with the four head fastening nuts.
• Turn camshaft to TDC (dial gauge will reverse direction
of rotation).
• Position dial gauge on piston as shown in the figure
and measure piston drawback.
• Use the table below to determine the thickness of the
cylinder bottom gasket to be used at reassembly and
thus ensure the correct compression.
• Remove special tool and cylinder.
Note: The standout is measured on the 125 cc engine, the
drawback on the 200 cc engine.
