The cylinder walls should be checked for out-of-round and taper with Tool C119 or equivalent. See Fig 1(Refer to ENGINE - SPECIFICATIONS) . If the cylinder walls are badly scuffed or scored, the cylinder block should be replaced, and new pistons and rings fitted.

Measure the cylinder bore at three levels in directions A and B. See Fig 1. Top measurement should be 10 mm (3/8 in.) down and bottom measurement should be 10 mm (3/8 in.) up from bottom of bore. (Refer to ENGINE - SPECIFICATIONS) .
