(1) Cylinder Gauge

  • Measure the inside diameter cylinder at the six positions with a cylinder gauge.

  • Find the maximum and minimum inner diameters.

  • Find the difference between the maximum and the minimum inner diameters.

  • If the maximum I.D. or the difference is more than the allowable limit, bore and hone the cylinder to the oversize dimension.

  • Examine the cylinder wall for scratches. If you find deep scratches, bore the cylinder.

    Table 1
    Inside diameter of cylinder block bore (New)  87.000 mm (3.4252 inch) to 87.022 mm (3.42606 inch) 
    Allowable limit  87.170 mm (3.4319 inch) 
    Allowable limit for the difference between the maximum and minimum inside diameter  0.15 mm (0.0059 inch) 

    Cylinder Correction (Oversize)

    (A) Cylinder Inside Diameter Before Correction
    (B) Oversized Inside Diameter

    1. If the cylinder wear is more than the allowable limit, bore and hone it to the specified dimension.

      Table 2
      Oversized inside diameter of bore (New)  87.250 mm (3.4351 inch) to 87.272 mm (3.4359 inch) 
      Allowable limit  87.420 mm (3.4417 inch) 
      Allowable limit for the difference between the maximum oversized inside diameter and the minimum oversized inside diameter of the cylinder  0.15 mm (0.0059 inch) 

    Note: Replace the pistons and piston rings with oversized pistons.

    Cylinder Block Flatness

    1. Clean the cylinder block surface.

    2. Place a straightedge on the cylinder block four sides (A), (B), (C), (D, and) two diagonal (E), and (F) as shown in the Illustration. Measure the clearance with a feeler gauge.

      Table 3
      Cylinder block flatness  Allowable limit  0.05 mm (0.002 inch) 

    3. If the measurement exceeds the allowable limit, correct the cylinder block with a surface grinder.

      Note: Be sure to check the valve recessing after correcting.
