During piston ring installation, you should check and adjust the ring end gaps to ensure they are within specified limits. The rings should be installed correctly on each piston. It is important to lubricate the pistons, rings, and cylinders with engine oil during installation. Additionally, a piston ring compressor should be used.

When removing piston/connecting rod assemblies, start by checking for ridges at the upper limit of ring travel in each cylinder and remove them if present to avoid piston breakage. Verify connecting rod endplay with feeler gauges and address any deviations, ensuring it falls within the service limit. Carefully identify and label connecting rods and caps for proper reassembly. Remove connecting rod cap fasteners and push the connecting rod/piston assembly out of the engine after removing the bearing insert. Store the removed heads on blocks of wood for protection. For piston ring installation, check and adjust ring end gaps, making sure they are within specified limits, and install the rings correctly on each piston. During installation, lubricate pistons, rings, and cylinders with engine oil, and use a piston ring compressor. When installing piston/connecting rod assemblies, ensure cylinder walls are clean, apply engine oil, and carefully guide each assembly into the cylinder while paying attention to proper orientation. Verify connecting rod bearing oil clearance using Plastigage, ensuring it falls within specifications. Apply grease or assembly lube to bearing faces before final installation of rod caps and bolts. Repeat these steps for all piston/connecting rod assemblies, and rotate the crankshaft by hand to check for binding. Finally, check the connecting rod endplay for correctness, and if necessary, take rods for resizing if new components were installed.
