Specification for 341-3642 Piston and Rod Gp
Item Qty Part Specification Description
Thoroughly lubricate the ring grooves of the entire piston with the clean engine oil before installation of the piston rings. After assembly, lubricate the mating surfaces of the rings to the cylinder liner with the clean engine oil.
1 1 229-1632 Top Piston Ring Install the piston ring with the "Up-1" side toward the top of the piston.
When the piston ring is installed in a cylinder liner with a bore size of 170 mm (6.7 inch), the clearance between the ends of the piston ring is 0.625 0.125 mm (0.0246 0.0049 inch).
The increase in the clearance between the ends of the piston ring for each 0.03 mm (0.001 inch) increase in the cylinder liner bore size is 0.08 mm (0.003 inch).
Thickness of the new top piston ring is 4.5 mm (0.18 inch).
2 1 144-5695 Intermediate Piston Ring Install the piston ring with the "Up-2" side toward the top of the piston.
When the piston ring is installed in a cylinder liner with a bore size of 170 mm (6.7 inch), the clearance between the ends of the piston ring is 1.00 0.15 mm (0.039 0.006 inch).
The increase in the clearance between the ends of the piston ring for each 0.03 mm (0.001 inch) increase in the cylinder liner bore size is 0.08 mm (0.003 inch).
Thickness of the new intermediate piston ring is 3.785 mm (0.1490 inch).
3 1 165-6668 Oil Control Piston Ring The spring ends of the oil control piston ring should be assembled 180 degrees from the ring end gap.
