V8 piston rings
Hi Guys.. I was checking the ring gap of my new rings when I noticed that the box was missing a spring tensioner on the third oil control ring. 2x times thin steel flat rings separated by a wiggly spring. The wiggly part is missing.
There are 4 ring grooves with the 4th ring being cast iron.
Can I just install 3 rings and leave the 3rd one out?
Can I install the 4th ring in the 3rd ring position?
I've got some old pistons with rings so could I use a second hand piece in the new pistons?
Ideas anyone?
Regards Kevin
