Piston Ring Installation HELP
#4
No problem. Glad to help.
Or not. Your description may match perfectly for another brand. They all tend to differ slightly. Even between sets made by the same company.
The Sealed Power WE510KC set(22RE)is almost exactly the same though.

2nd Compression

Here's a pic of an unknown brand of 22RE rings that shows many different types.

For more examples of what I mean see this NPR catalog on page 5 where it shows slight variations between their different series. You'll also notice the differences between their ring designs and Sealed Power rings as well.
Which brand were you meaning to describe anyway? It's sounds sorta like the unbranded ones above.
Here's a visual how the rings are supposed to line up.

The FSM also shows this as how the rings should be installed on the pistons on page EG1-67.

Sorry to pull up an old thread, but I'm at the stage of installing my engnbldr rings and I am not sure what direction is up and down. I noticed the top ring is rounded, the second ring I cant quite tell.
