NOTE:
Ring should be installed with the mark on the
ring facing upward.
2. Measure installed gap with a feeler gauge (C) at
both the top and bottom of the cylinder.
REMINDER:
A difference in end gap indicates
cylinder taper. The cylinder should be measured
for excessive taper and out of round.
3. If the
bottom
installed gap measurement exceeds
the service limit, replace the rings. If ring gap is
smaller than the specified limit, file ring ends until
gap is within specified range.
NOTE:
Always check piston ring installed gap after
re-boring a cylinder or when installing new rings. A
re-bored cylinder should always be scrubbed
thoroughly with hot soapy water, rinsed, and dried
completely. Wipe cylinder bore with oil immediately to
remove residue and prevent rust.
