  1. Measure piston ring end gap. Use head of piston to push ring squarely into bore. Leave ring at bottom of ring travel. Using a feeler gauge, measure piston ring end gap. Compare measurement with specification. See «ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-48806-S22000107072001011500000).
  2. Install rings on piston. Note 2nd compression ring inner edge is slightly chamfered. Using a feeler gauge, measure ring side clearance between ring and ring land. If ring lands are excessively worn, replace piston.
  3. Properly space ring end gaps on piston. (Схема №8) Ensure end gaps do not align with piston pin or thrust face of piston. Install rings with manufacturer's mark facing up.
