RPi Advice

  • The 1st ring on Post-1976 pistons are thinner than those on the pre 1976 engines by around 0.5mm, and so they are not interchangeable. Early style rings are also available from our web shop.
  • The second ring is always directional, and sometimes the first ring is too. Our advice is to keep the packaging the rings come in as well as the instructions - the relevant information is always included. As a general rule, if a piston ring is directional it will have a dot or the word "TOP" stamped on it, which needs to point upwards.
  • Always measure piston ring gaps and make adjustments if necessary. Ring gaps are below:
    1st ring: 17 to 22 thou
    2nd ring 17 to 22 thou
    Oil ring 14 to 50 thou
