    Q:
    How should the connecting rod/piston assemblies be removed from the engine, and what should be used to prevent damage during removal for the 1988 Chevrolet Beretta? Posted by Customer
    A:
    To remove the connecting rod/piston assemblies from the engine, push them out through the top of the engine using a wooden or plastic hammer handle to push on the upper bearing surface in the connecting rod. If resistance is felt, double-check to make sure all of the ridge was removed from the cylinder.

    Q:
    What issues should be checked for when inspecting each piston, and what might these issues indicate for the 1990 Chevrolet Beretta? Posted by Customer
    A:
    When inspecting each piston, you should check for cracks around the skirt, at the pin bosses, and ring lands. Also, check for scoring, scuffing, holes in the piston crown, or burned areas at the crown edge, which can indicate issues like overheating, abnormal combustion, or spark knock. Corrosion in the form of small pits may indicate coolant leakage.

    Q:
    What should be done if the ring end gap is insufficient for the 1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass? Posted by Customer

    If the gap is insufficient, replace the ring with another top ring and check all top rings similarly, using a fine file to adjust if necessary.

    Q:
    How can the condition of the piston and connecting rod assembly be assessed for the 1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass? Posted by Customer
    A:
    While the piston is still connected to the connecting rod, it is advisable to swivel the rod back and forth to assess the degree of difficulty. Comparing all piston/rod assemblies can help determine if the rods appear loose on the piston pins and move with little or no drag, indicating that the piston pins have worn and must be replaced.
