## Engine Block

#### Block and Piston Inspection

7-16

1. Remove the crankshaft and pistons (see page 7-13).

1. Check the piston for distortion or cracks.

1. Measure the piston diameter at a point 11 mm (0.4 in.) from the bottom of the skirt. There are two standard-size pistons (No Letter or A, and B). The letter is stamped on the top of the piston. Letters are also stamped on the block as cylinder bore sizes.

   Piston Diameter:

Standard (New):

No Letter (or A):

85.980 - 85.990 mm

(3.3850 - 3.3854 in.)

B:

85.970 - 85.980 mm

(3.3846 - 3.3850 in.)

Service Limit:

No Letter (or A):

85.930 mm (3.3831 in.)

B:

85.920 mm (3.3827 in.)

Oversize Piston Diameter:

0.25: 86.230 - 86.240 mm (3.3949 - 3.3953 in.)

1. Measure wear and taper in direction X and Y at three levels in each cylinder as shown. If measurements in any cylinder are beyond the Oversize Bore Service Limit, replace the block. If the block is to be rebored, refer to step 7 after reboring.

   Cylinder Bore Size:

Standard (New):

A or I:

86.010 - 86.020 mm

(3.3862 - 3.3866 in.)

B or II:

86.000 - 86.010 mm

(3.3858 - 3.3862 in.)

Service Limit:

86.070 mm (3.3886 in.)

Oversize:

0.25: 86.250 - 86.260 mm (3.3957 - 3.3961 in.)

Reboring limit: 0.25 mm (0.01 in.) max.

Bore Taper:

Limit:

(Difference between first and third measurement) 0.05 mm (0.002 in.)
