Hasting rings question
 
I accidently mixed up the top and bottem rings when opening the box....can someone tell me how to tell the diff between the 2?

To the best of my knowledge the bottom one should be the oil rings. There is no way you should have problem identifying that one. Push the other two rings (outer edge) into the groove on the piston and see which one fits each groove the best. One of the rings should be thicker than the other. The middle one should be thicker.

Hope this help you.

ive always herd that the rign with the jagged sharp edge goes on top, oil ring is second and then the normal ring on bottom, but i cant say this is for sure, just what i have been told
