The instructions do not indicate which piston groove either ring is to install into.
Any thoughts out there on this.
Thx all for your help.

First off,...the "second ring" is an "oil control" ring! It's not a compression ring.
IF the chamfer is BELOW the "pip" mark....either on the outside OR inside
it's the second ring.
