20460045 Volvo.Penta Clamp

When handling the piston assembly, be aware that the piston pin plug which fits on the end of the piston pin, is only used to prevent the piston pin from scuffing the cylinders. It does not retain the pin in the assembly, once the piston assembly is removed from the cylinder, the pin is free to fall out of the assembly at any time.
