General The piston gudgeon pin is sealed in both ends with a shrink-fitted steel plug.
If the plug for some reason moves outwards or inwards, it may disturb the
lubricating oil flow to the piston.
Recommendation At every piston overhaul, check (using e.g. a steel ruler or straight edge)
that the plug is flush with the end of the gudgeon pin as shown in the
illustrations below.
The tolerance for the plug position is +0,1 mm (outwards) and
-0,3 mm (inwards).
Note! If the plug has moved, the gudgeon pin must be replaced. Do not attempt to
re-position the plug.
