CHECKING THE PISTON RINGS
The following procedure applies to all of the
piston rings.
1. Measure:
• Piston ring side clearance
Out of specification → Replace the piston
and piston rings as a set.
TIP
Before measuring the piston ring side clear-
ance, eliminate any carbon deposits from the
piston ring grooves and piston rings.
