Install the cylinder head gasket. Put the piston (Item 1) [Figure 70-100-11] being checked at T.D.C.
Put three pieces of 0.060 inch (1,5 mm) diameter solder (Item 2) [Figure 70-100-11] on the top of the piston. Use grease to hold them in position.
NOTE: Position the solder so they do not touch the valves.
Turn the piston to bottom dead center.
Install the cylinder head and tighten to the correct torque in the correct sequence. (See Cylinder Head Removal And Installation on Page 70-100-1.)
Turn the crankshaft until the piston exceeds T.D.C.
Remove the cylinder head.
Remove the solder wire (Item 3) [Figure 70-100-11] and measure it.
If the measurement exceeds the specifications, check the oil clearance of the crank pin journal or the piston pin.
