Best Answer

The bore refers to the Inside diameter of the cylinder. The Piston will be nearly the same diameter, with the piston rings making up the difference. Convert the bore to area by multiplying by pi and dividing by four, and multiply by the stroke and the number of cylinders and you have the volume displacement of the engine.

The bore of the cylinder of a piston engine is normally ground with a slight choke?

Generally the nominal diameter of cylinder bore is kept little smaller at cylinder head than at the bottom. The engine head will be generally heat and it tends to expand for these high temperatures. To prevent the bore diameter at head to exceed diameter at bottom,piston engine bore is ground with a slight choke.


The piston displacement of a specific engines is meaning?

The piston cylinder bore, times the cylinder stroke, times the number of cylinders gives you the specific displacement for a particular engine.

Bore is the diameter of the piston/cylinder, stroke is the distance the piston can travel between its highest position and its lowest position in the cylinder.

Possibly worn cylinder bore(s), or worn out or broken piston rings.


What is normally used to maintain the correct piston-to-cylinder clearance?

The clearance between the piston and cylinder is maintained by the piston rings, the ring centers the piston within the cylinder bore and is the device that seals the cylinder bore and creates and maintains the pressure created by the piston movement in the bore. When assembling an engine you will need to check and set end gap of the rings, this is done by centering the new ring in the bore and measuring the gap between the ring ends, you can measure this distance with feeler gauges and adjust by filing the ends of the rings to increase to the recommended tolerance, this tolerance is measured in .000 of an inch and different engines require different end gaps. This end gap is determined by the diameter of the bore with the greater the bore diameter than the greater the end gap,.


1992 trx 250x a valve broke off damage to the head and piston did not hurt the cylinder can you just get it honed or does it need bored out?

If there was no damage to the cylinder bore then you will not need to bore it oversize.If there was no damage to the cylinder bore then you will not need to bore it oversize.


What does it mean by define an engine by its Bore X stroke?

bore is the diameter of the piston and stroke is the length the piston moves in the cylinder.for example if bore x stroke is 1x3 then 1 is the diameter of the piston and 3 is the length of the cylinder.if bore is greater than stroke then it is a short stroke engine.


What makes an engine lose compression?

Worn cylinder bore, worn piston rings, poor valve seat condition, tired valve springs.


What are symptoms of excessive piston to bore clearance?

excessive piston to bore clearance means that the gap (tollerance) between your piston and the sidewall of your cylinder/block is too large. usually will cause blow-by. the burning of oil, and dark exhaust smoke. also may cause the engine to have a weak compression stroke
