Hi all,
Doing a rebuild of this engine, and have two pistons that have worn a locating pin completely away.
A third piston has a pin that has been worn to approx 2.1mm long (0.083"). A new pin is probably 4.3mm long (0.169").
The workshop book I have states simply check for excessive wear, but doesn't state a length.
I have no idea when the pistons were replaced (if ever), so have no idea how long it has taken the pin to wear this far.
What is an acceptable length for these pins?
Thanks,
Nick.
