Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this .030 oversize piston is correct for my engine?

This piston is for engines that have had their cylinders bored .030" over the standard size for repair. You must measure your cylinder bore or have a mechanic confirm that an oversize piston is required. Do not install it in a standard-bore cylinder.

Is this piston for the port or starboard side?

This specific part (765-7445T11) is designed exclusively for the starboard (right) side of the engine block. A different part number is required for the port (left) side due to design differences.

Do the included piston rings need to be gapped?

Yes, absolutely. The included piston rings must be gapped according to your engine's service manual specifications before installation. Failure to set the correct gap can lead to poor performance, low compression, or catastrophic engine damage.

What are signs that my old piston needs replacing?

Common symptoms include a noticeable loss of compression, increased oil consumption, blue or white smoke from the exhaust, or a persistent knocking sound from the engine. A definitive diagnosis requires a compression test and internal inspection by a qualified mechanic.

Is there a break-in period for a new piston?

Yes, a proper engine break-in procedure is critical for seating the new rings and ensuring a long service life. Follow the guidelines in your service manual, which typically involves running the engine at varied, moderate RPMs without full load for a set period.
