Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if I need an oversize piston?
An oversize piston is required when the engine cylinder is worn or damaged beyond standard service limits. The cylinder must be bored or honed by a machine shop to the next size up. This +0.50mm piston is for cylinders machined to a final diameter of 80.50mm.
Will this fit my standard 80mm cylinder bore?
No. This is an oversize part and is 0.50mm larger than the standard piston. It will not fit in a standard cylinder bore and requires the cylinder to be professionally machined to 80.50mm.
What are the signs of a failing piston?
Common symptoms include a loss of compression, excessive oil consumption, blue or white smoke from the exhaust, reduced power, and an audible knocking or rattling sound from within the engine.
Does this kit include the wrist pin and clips?
Yes, the "Piston Assembly" listed in the package contents includes the piston, wrist pin, and circlips required for installation, along with the separate piston ring set.
