    I ordered a short block gx200 clone and the piston was already installed and the arrow on the piston was pointing up . That's how it was delivered to me

      I would correct that before running the engine. The pins are offset and the triangle or dot must face the pushrod area

    I have a 196 clone and I'm removing the connecting rod and piston to throw some new rings on with a fresh hone. Can i safely reinstall the rod onto the crank,torque it down and go?

    My black ring ( center ring ) doesn't flex at all once installed on piston . Can't depress to install piston into cylinder .

    What size do you need for a non hemi rod and piston

      What do you mean, you didnt say what engine. Gx200 196 clone or 212 predator. Then you go on the website and shop for your engine. It tells you what parts fit

      @@joshuaboey366 Yes, I set my ring gaps 180 degrees apart. and have the end gaps by the pin. This is something that has been debated for years about what is the proper way. This may not be what everyone does, but it works for me.

    I did it myself with the Woodglut plans. I think this is the best way to find out how to build it.
