5 Cylinder and piston<br />

Reasons:<br />

● Defective air filter. Small dust particles<br />

pass through the filter.<br />

● The filter is worn out as a result of<br />

overcleaning, whereby small holes<br />

have been made in the filter material.<br />

● Insufficient maintenance of the filter,<br />

e.g. the use of incorrect method or<br />

incorrect solvent.<br />

● Flocculation material releases and<br />

holes are made in the air filter.<br />

● The air filter is incorrectly fitted.<br />

● The air filter is damaged or missing.<br />

Procedure:<br />

Fit a fine-mesh filter.<br />

Check the filter carefully for holes and<br />

damage each time it is cleaned. Change<br />

the filter if necessary.<br />

Carefully clean and use the correct solvent<br />

(e.g. lukewarm soapy water).<br />

Change filter.<br />

Fit the filter correctly.<br />

Fit a new air filter.<br />

Inlet side.<br />

Dust and dirt particles from carbon deposits on<br />

the head of the piston and in the piston ring<br />

groove. The piston ring is stuck in the groove.<br />

Piston material is worn off.<br />

The lower part of the piston skirt on the inlet side<br />

is thinner than on the exhaust side.<br />

Large, softer particles which have entered the engine result in damage to the piston<br />

skirt under the piston ring as shown in the illustration.<br />

Reasons:<br />

● The air filter is incorrectly fitted.<br />

● The air filter is damaged or missing.<br />

Procedure:<br />

Fit the air filter correctly.<br />

Fit a new air filter.<br />

The piston is worn and scratched from the piston<br />

ring and downwards on the inlet side.<br />

Large, hard particles which enter the engine result in more severe damage to the lower<br />

part of the piston skirt.<br />

Reasons:<br />

● The air filter is damaged or missing.<br />

● Parts from the carburettor or inlet<br />

system have released and entered<br />

the engine.<br />

Procedure:<br />

Fit a new air filter.<br />

Regular service and control.<br />

Severe damages to the lower part of the piston on<br />

the inlet side.<br />
