This guided the piston closely, not letting it hammer itself in its bore. When warmed up, such tapered and oval pistons assumed a cylindrical shape that resulted in a large area of intimate contact with the cylindrical bore, providing best piston cooling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>When you reach the piston ring belt close to the piston crown that is in contact with hot combustion gasthat taper increases a bunch.<\/p>\n<cite>Rihanna<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Why?

The lower parts of the piston, being farther from the heat, run cooler and so expand less, requiring less clearance. As a result, the piston is tapered\u2014largest at the bottom of the skirt and smallest in the ring belt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This needs for taper is magnified in the ring belt, where a lot of clearance is required to keep that part of the piston from expanding enough to reduce the clearance to zero, making seizure likely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where the Expedition truly distinguishes itself from the Norden 901 is in componentry.
