dimension is 1.70120.0003 in.
The maximum permissible clearance
between the bearing and piston
pin (12) must not be more than
0.003 in.

grooves. The flat edge of the
gage must be between grooves for
the top ring and intermediate
ring. If there is clearance
between the flat edge of the

locations, for both grooves,
reuse the piston. If the flat
edge is in contact with the
piston, at any of the test
locations, do not reuse the
piston. Install a new piston.
