  1.      Cylinder with piston,
          washers and pins
  In order to improve the function, the existing
  "Cylinder with piston" 4180 020 1202 will be
  replaced by the version 4180 020 1203.

  1.1     Ignition module and washers
  For further improvement of the function, the
  washers 4180 404 9300 will in future be fitted
  between the cylinder and the ignition module.
  For this purpose, the domes on the new cylinder for
  screw-mounting of the ignition module will be
  shortened by 0.079 in (2.0 mm).
