Well, how does the sizing standard for rings work? How do I know which size to get for my teener? Also, are the top and second rings exactly the same, or is there some 'invisible' difference between the two? Thanks.

Okay, when I wrote that original post, I was REALLY tired, so it probably doesn't make any sense. What I'm really asking is; when you go to order rings, they give you four numbers, like 90 x 2 x 2 x 5. 90 is obviously the cylinder bore, but what do the other three stand for. I'm guessing one is ring height and one is ring thickness (Inward towards the center of the piston), but I don't really know for sure. Please, help. Thanks.
Mark D. P.S. Before you say so, I have searched on the internet for the answer before asking for help. I haven't been successful, even on one website call the 'Ring Museum', I didn't find my answer. |
