PISTON IDENTIFICATION
The piston may have an identification mark or the
piston may not
have an identification mark for
piston placement. If the piston has an identification
mark, follow the directions for piston placement
below. If the piston does not have an identification
mark, the direction for placement of the piston does
not matter.
Note the directional and identification marks when
viewing the pistons from the top. The letter “F”, “ !
”, “ "”or: must always be toward the flywheel side
of the engine. The other numbers are used for
identification as to diameter, length and design. Four
stroke engine rings are rectangular profile. See text
for oil control ring upper rail installation. Use the
information below to identify pistons and rings.
