Pistons, rings, cams, rocker arms, valves, bearings and crankcase parts all have to match each other. Using the Suzuki part number for your engine keeps those clearances where the factory set them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you rebuild, measure the parts you are reusing. A new part next to a worn one can still leave you with a short-lived repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRebuild or Repair?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single worn part, like a cam chain guide or a rocker arm, is often an easy fix. If compression is low, the engine smokes or the bottom end knocks, plan a fuller inspection.
