Steve W. Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Hi. Yal., Say, I'm buildin' up an EJ22T to stuff in my 88 GL10T, I've done a lite port & polish and valve job, and thot it'd be practical to repl. the rings while it's this far down. I talked to a friend in Santa Fe that runs a small Suby shop, and he said " ya, just pull the pistons and clean em' up, clean the oil rings and slam it back together". The end gaps are within factory spec's, but that seems sorta half assed. So far no success in finding rings, N/a's are every where, but it seems the 1.5- 1.5- 3.0s are hard to find. Guidance appreciated. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Half assed or not it will probably work fine. They are chrome-moly rings and don't really wear. I have never seen one break either. Clean out the oil rings, the grooves, and the oil drain ports in the oil ring groove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zstalker Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 http://www.gjparts.com/products/pistons&rings/NPR2008Book_catalog.pdf here's the NPR catalog for pistons and rings. NPR is who makes the rings that Subaru sells new. PN SWF20067 looks like yours...it's got the 1.5, 1.5, 3.0 rings sometimes Ebay comes up with results, sometimes Google will help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
