Piston Ring Gapping

Recommended Posts

When reassembling an engine, assuming one gets, all the right bits, in all the right places, & bolt tensions are correct, there is not too many procedures that can go wrong, assuming, you "take your time".

However, one area, where the novice can come unstuck, is setting ring gaps, if you are fitting a new set; particularly if the block has been rebored.

The following article on HP Academy, is probably one of the best I have read, in a long time.
