THis means that the sleeve where the piston move up and down is tighten and makes the engine faster. When you buy a new engine the sleeve comes pinched because it is new now when the sleeve does not have that pinch any more it is time to get it pinch or a new engine.. The life of an engine in the piston and sleeve.

Hope that helps a bit
