Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this piston kit is correct for my engine?
Verify your engine model and year against the "Engine & Model Compatibility" table. It is also essential to visually compare your old part with our product images to ensure an exact match before ordering.
What are the common signs of a failing piston?
Symptoms of a worn or damaged piston include excessive exhaust smoke, a noticeable loss of power, increased oil consumption, and an audible knocking or "slapping" sound from the engine, especially when cold.
Do I need to replace other parts when installing a new piston?
Yes, it is best practice to also replace the piston rings, wrist pin, and circlips, which are included in this kit. You should also inspect the cylinder walls, connecting rod, and associated bearings for wear and replace them if they are out of specification.
What is the correct break-in procedure for a new piston?
Proper break-in is crucial. After installation, operate the engine under light load with varied RPMs for the first few hours. Avoid sustained high speeds or heavy loads to allow the new piston rings to seat properly against the cylinder wall for optimal compression and longevity.
