🔍 Key Concepts

• cylinder wear pattern along the stroke of a diesel engine piston • purpose of checking piston ring end gap during installation • why you want the cylinder diameter to be closest to original/bore size when measuring clearance

💭 Think About

• Think about where in the cylinder the rings actually cause the most wear during normal operation, especially near the top, middle, or bottom of the stroke. • Ask yourself: when you check ring end gap, are you trying to see the ring in its worst-worn everyday position, or are you trying to measure its fit against a surface that still represents the true cylinder size? • Consider how incorrect ring end gap (too large or too small) would affect sealing, blow‑by, and potential ring breakage, and where you’d best detect that accurately.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify where in the liner the cylinder diameter has changed the least from its original machining size. • Distinguish between cylinder wear and ring wear—the question is about where to place the ring in the liner, not about which part is more worn. • Make sure your choice matches the goal: an accurate measurement of ring gap clearance, not inspection of maximum damage.
