Inspect the Engine Before Reassembly

Check the Tensioner and Coolant System

This kit also addresses parts beyond the piston and cylinder. Inspect the surrounding tensioner components during teardown. In addition, check the coolant system and pipe connections for leaks, damage, or buildup before reassembly.

Prepare the New Top End for Installation

Verify piston orientation, ring position, and the required clearances before installing the cylinder. Next, prepare the gasket surfaces and keep debris out of the open engine. Follow the correct assembly and torque specifications as the top end goes back together.
