    I had no idea that there was so much technology involved in those rings, I'm glad I watched this video because now I can take apart the last two engines I put together and check the rings

      Same, the rings summit told me to use stick out the pistons still and the oil ring stick out even when fully compressed

    Thank you for the video. About to get new rings for my old Golf 4 and i was wondering if i really need any special tools to install the ring. Good to know that it's actually that simple and i can save the money :)

    What do I do if the oil rings stop the piston from going in the bore? Do I file then to close more or something?

    Good night I have a question I m watching you set the rings and I have been setting my compression rings on the minor and major thrust side all the time and always experienced a good compression but my question is if your way would make it even better

    I got the exact same ring kit, but never received a groovelock spacer. i only got the top ring, second ring, the wiper rings and the expander ring. I got 3 packages in my set of rings, none had any extras.

    Hi. All of your playlists are not aligned in sequence, so this makes me confused to know what vidoe came first
    For example, i find a video which is a year old, then, vidio four years old, then, vidoe one year old. I don't know what to watch first.
    Finally, thanks you your great & informative efforts

    The second compression ring I thought had a dimple indicating install orientation. Was that installed up towards the head or towards the pan?

    • @skylinefever
      @skylinefever 2 года назад +3

      The marker faces towards the cylinder head. It doesn't matter what brand of ring you buy, the side with the marking faces the cylinder head.

    Oil ring gaps ???

  • @peanutbutterisfu
    @peanutbutterisfu Год назад +8

    Never use the ring pliers when you use them you open the ring wider then rolling them in like this guy is doing. You can break rings with the pliers and/or distort the shape which can make them have too much tension when the piston is installed causing the cylinder wall to wear out. If you know what ur doing then you will know if ur going to far when using pliers but if you don’t do this work often just do it like this so you don’t mess up

  • @alanw5812

    no video show why and how to put oil rings, shouldn't jump this part, the spring oil ring the end of the ring should point up! like this / \, so when compression up it block the air and when down it's open and can left some oil.
