  • Inspect the piston, rings, and cylinder Wall.

  • Measure the total clearance between the piston rings and the ring grooves,
  • Continue the inspection at the next cylinder whose piston is nearest BDC, and so on according to the firing order. Note down the order of inspection for use at later inspections.
