How to Properly Service and Repair a Piston Ring Set During an Engine Overhaul on Dodge Durango?

For piston ring service, make sure to do all of the necessary machining and mating as required during a full engine overhaul which covers the cylinder block and bore, connecting rod and bearings, crankshaft and bearings, valve train parts, engine oil, valves, seats, springs, rockers and pistons. During disassembly and assembly of the smaller subassemblies, you service the cylinder head, cylinder block, hydraulic tappets if they are present, oil pump and valves. Procedure involves checking and cleaning the cylinder head, cylinder block, both shafts and their journals, two manifolds and the valve train pieces. A separate service procedure for an internal engine component usually means the manufacturer did not include one.

How to Check Clearances and Install a Piston Ring Set on Dodge Durango?

It's important to measure the ring gaps of used or new rings by first wiping the bore dry, placing the ring inside the cylinder bore and making the measurement while the ring is at least 12mm (0.50 inch) away from the base of the bore. Use a piston to form up the ring in the cylinder bore and move it downward. Then, check its end gap with a feeler gauge and replace any ring that diverges from the set value. Always check that the grooves are unobstructed and free from damage before taking the ring clearance measurement, fitting the feeler gauge between the ring and ring land to see if the fit is close enough and changing any rings that do not satisfy the specification. Wrap the new ring clockwise again to confirm it stays in the groove without resistance and put it so that the manufacturer's mark "Dot" sticks up from the top of the piston. Place the piston rings on the cylinder this way: oil ring expander, upper oil ring side rail (1), lower oil ring side rail and then the measured rings, with No. 2 intermediate placed next to the No. 1 upper piston ring. First, put in the oil ring expander, then secure the upper side rail by placing one end in the groove between the expander and piston rings and pressing until it's seated, then do the same with the lower side rail. With the piston ring installer, position both the No. 2 intermediate piston ring and the No. 1 upper piston ring so their gaps are at least 45° from the edges of the side rail gaps, being careful not to place them on the piston pin center or the thrust direction.
