Cylinder Bore
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Dodge Intrepid, 2003 Chrysler Intrepid, 2003 Chrysler Concorde, and 2003 Chrysler 300M. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
The cylinder bores should be measured at normal room temperature, 21°C (70°F).
The cylinder walls should be checked for out-of-round and taper with Tool C119 or equivalent (Fig 1) (Refer to SPECIFICATIONS ). If the cylinder walls are badly scuffed or scored, the cylinder block should be replaced, and new pistons and rings fitted.
Measure the cylinder bore at three levels in directions A and B (Fig 1). Top measurement should be 10 mm (3/8 in.) down and bottom measurement should be 10 mm (3/8 in.) up from bottom of bore. (Refer to SPECIFICATIONS ).
