Hello,

Just to clarify, you like to get the procedure for putting new piston rings? Correct?
I just want to make sure we are on the same page as there are several procedures for the engine rebuilt.

I'm looking for the rebuild procedure rather than installing only the ring. Thank you for your help!

I have attached the complete engine disassembly, cleaning and inspections and assembly procedure. It also contains any torque specifications and sequences.
It is quite a lot of information. Should all be in order.
Let me know if you have any questions.
