    Q:
    How is piston ring side clearance measured for the 1987 Nissan 300ZX? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Measure the piston ring side clearance by placing a new piston ring in each groove and using a feeler gauge to check the gap, ensuring to compare readings with specified clearances; excessive clearance indicates the need for new pistons.

    Q:
    How is piston-to-bore clearance checked for the 1995 Nissan Maxima? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Piston-to-bore clearance is checked by measuring the bore and the piston diameter. The piston should be measured across the skirt at a 90-degree angle to the piston pin. The clearance is obtained by subtracting the piston diameter from the bore diameter.
