CHECKING THE PISTON RINGS
1. Measure:
● Piston ring side clearance
Out of specification → Replace the piston
and piston rings as a set.
NOTE:
Before measuring the piston ring side clearance,
eliminate any carbon deposits from the piston
ring grooves and piston rings.
2. Install:
● Piston ring
(into the cylinder)
NOTE:
Level the piston ring into the cylinder with the
piston crown.
