Post subject: | Which Ring is Which? |
I'm moving along on assembling my KH500/H1 engine. I've gapped the rings but have a question on which goes on top. I'm using cruzinimage pistons. There are two rings - one is wider than the other. The thinner one uses a spring backing. Which goes on top? Thanks in advance. Gene |

I'm not familiar with Cruzinimage products, but normally if there's a ring with an expander under it, it's not the top ring. From one of their eBay descriptions: "Improved design on the expander ring 12 edged instead of 8 gives smoother back pressure on the 2nd ring." |

Second. It is an anti-slap ring to quell noise and skirt collapse. cliff |
