6.2.9. Piston rings
1) Visual check
Replace the piston rings with new ones if detected worn or broken when the engine is
overhauled.
2) Piston ring gap
•
Insert the piston ring into the upper portion of the cylinder liner bore and then it should be
positioned at a right angle against the cylinder liner wall surface.
•
Measure the piston ring gap with a
feeler gauge.
Replace piston rings with new ones if
the gap is beyond the limit
3) Piston ring side clearance
•
Fit the compression rings and oil ring
in the piston ring grooves.
•
With a feeler gauge, measure side
clearance of each ring, and replace
either the ring or piston if the
measured value is beyond the
specified limit.
4) Piston ring tension
With a tension tester, measure piston ring tension. Replace the piston ring if the measured
value is beyond the limit.
