In adition to the above coment, which i must say is spot on, the posability of a used barel and piston if a new piston is not available could be worth considering, other things you may wish to check on that particular engine is camshaft seizure, in a uk bike it runs directly in the machined surface of the cylinder head, oil failure due to blocked oil filter has severe consequenses, located on the l/h side of the engine under a 22 or 24mm spaner head cap just below the gear change lever, this is a washable filter retained by a cap and spring, correct replacment is inperitive. are you located in UK? HOPE THIS HELPS YOU

That cylinder can be rebored. You would go to 1st oversize, 2nd oversize, 3rd oversize, etc., as needed. You won't know what size will be needed until the cylinder is bored enough to clean up the scoring. The problem will be finding a new piston and rings for the bike. You can try babbit's but no promises on a bike that old. You may be able to take the old piston to a Honda shop and have them match it up to a newer bike. You may get lucky.

I seized my mx360 up 3 times....Each time...I used a 3 blade hone on a drill to bore it out 1mm at a time until I got rid of the score marks...Then, I used a inside micrometer to measure the top, center, and lower bore diameter's...and bought a piston to match my bore and taper measurements. If you only seized the top end, your crank and cam should be fine. Use new oil, and a new filter and you'll be fine..Also, you might want to re jet the carb power jet itself to make up for your new (larger) bore....from 100cc to 110 or 120cc etc. There is a formula you can access to figure it out when done boring...Also, there is a standard guide you can look up to tell you your NEW engine's cubic centimeter displacement...Good luck...and remember the 500 mile break in on those new rings and piston....

Testimonial: "thanks guru or tom i do not have the tools to do the boring so will go to a workshop so it can be done and thanks for the running in info"

1999 Daewoo Lanos 1.4. What size are the piston rings please?

Question edited for clarity.

AI Chat GPT4 answer by Shwet Kashyap deleted.

When the vehicle standard size rings are used and this will be mentioned in the Service Manual. If the cylinders are rebored, oversize rings are used and there is normally 2 larger sizes. If you are replacing rings, you should always use an internal micrometer to measure the bores because the bores can wear oval across the bore. This is caused by the lateral force of the connecting rods. If the bore is within limits they should be honed. This removes the glaze and makes the bore slightly rough so that the new rings and bore polish themselves together to make a good fit.

Pistons, piston rings, circlips and gudgeon pins in this link.

Putting a Forsetti 1mm oversized piston in my Honda XL 500 , what tolerance does the rebore have to be. 90.5 o/d piston.

Rebore size/piston clearance will depend on the piston diameter and engine type. A split skirt piston tends to have less clearance. An air cooled engine tends to have more clearance.

It is important the boring operation leaves the bore one or two hundredths of a mm undersize and final finishing is done with a micrometer hone passed rapidly up and down the bore in order to leave a 120 degree crosshatched pattern, proven to be the most efficient for oil retention.

It takes at least 1000 miles for steel piston rings to properly bed in but 500 miles is sufficient for cast iron rings and it is important to use a low spec oil for the bedding in process - straight 30 or a proprietary running in oil.

Using a high spec oil from the start is likely to result in the piston rings taking an extraordinary amount of time to bed in - if ever!

What is the effects of new pistons especially bigger ones in a daewoo lanos 2000 model, can the sound of the car change compare to the standard pistons?

unlikely
bigger than standard pistons are measured in .010" increments and will require a rebore of the cylinders to fit them
most people fitting over size pistons to gain more power generally increase the size of the exhaust system and fit extractors as well
that will change the tone of the engine , but pistons alone will not

Excessive carbon on spark plugs which causes to fail

carbon on sparkplugs are caused by oil in the combustion chamber.

here are some things to do:
1. replace the sparkplug
2. replace your head gasket
3. check if your ignition timing is correct (timing in the distributor, camshaft, and crankshaft)

if these does not solve your problem, try this:
1. have your cylinder head checked for leaks/cracks
2. replace your piston rings

lastly, if all of these dont work, this is the solution (but quite pricey)
1. have your head rebored. reboring the cylinder head means making your combustion chamber wider so cracks/leaks on the wall will be removed.
2. after rebore.. you have 2 options: resleeve or replace piston rings. Resleeve means inserting sleeves in the bored chamber to replace the removed part. replacing pistong rings is also an alternative since your old one will not fit anymore ot the rebored head.

Oil blowing from breather pipe Honda 250

Take out engine Strip down and replace the Piston rings and check bore if got a ridge in it where the top ring stops then rebore it and fit new oversize rings
If worn bad then also new piston as well thats the only way to stop the oil from coming out of the Breather and give you back the power you lost ..
Easy done so do it and enjoy riding the Buggy

93 cr 125 has lack of power and a loud nocking

In a 2 stroke engine there are no valves and thus no adjusting required.The itself acts as a valve too.
Maybe you will have to rebore the cylinder and fit an oversize piston -kit or if the cylinder is to its tolerance thn fit in new setoof piston rings.
