Old style oil scraper ring installation
27 Dec 2018 00:59
Good morning i need advice. I have to install some of that old style oil scraper piston rings that are only one piece, with a little spring inside. They seem to be very easy to crack..
There is a trick? I broken some of the old ones during removal and now im concerned about installation. Especially, should i insert the spring in the piston slot Before, OR not? Please help

What kind of vehicle are we talking about here? Those one piece rings are inferior to the three piece type when it comes to oil control.
