I read the "how to change your piston rings" in Technical Documents. I ran into small problems recently and wanted to comment. The rings have really small letters or numbers on them....these face up. The darker ring goes on bottom and it's a good idea to put it in the first groove then down to second groove. I broke that ring a couple of days ago tryin to get it down to the second groove in one move. Costed an extra $23 for another set of rings.
