8. Measuring piston protrusion
Note: Piston protrusion must always meet the standard. The amount of protrusion not only
influences on the engine performance, but also it is important to prevent valve interference.
Illustration 8 g02203039
Measure the protrusion of each piston following the instructions below. If the measured value
exceeds the limit, inspect and repair each bearings.
1. Search the top dead center of the piston by using dial gauge.
2. Apply the dial gauge plunger to the top surface of the crankcase, and zero the dial gauge.
3. Measure the protrusion at three points on the piston head, and calculate the mean value.
Subtract the mean value from the thickness of the gasket compressed by tightening the cylinder
head. The clearance between the piston top and cylinder head will be determined.
Table 1
Item Standard Dimension
Piston protrusion (A)
0.130 to 0.600 mm (0.0051 to 0.0236 inch)
Compressed thickness of cylinder head gasket
