Piston rings
To remove
Operation 4-7
Note: The pistons have two compression rings and an oil control ring. All the piston rings are above the
gudgeon pin. To ensure that the correct type is obtained always use the engine identification number to order
new parts.
Caution: Only expand the ring gaps enough to ensure that the ends of the rings do not damage the piston
when the ring is removed.
1 Remove the piston rings with a suitable ring expander. Keep the rings with their relevant piston.
