How to Check Clearances and Install a Piston Ring Set on Jeep Liberty?

Always wipe the cylinder bore clean and insert the ring so that the gap measurement is made with the ring placed about 12 mm (0.50 inch) above the cylinder's bottom. Slide the ring down toward the crankshaft base with a piston, then see if it's squared by checking it with a feeler gauge. Replace any ring that doesn't match the required gap. Verify that inside the piston ring grooves are clear and free from any scratches, cuttings or damaging burrs; first place a feeler gauge with only a thin gap between the piston ring surfaces, measure the space and replace any ring that does not meet specification. Spin the ring on the piston and notice if it turns freely in the groove or if it gets stuck. Since the No. 1 and No. 2 piston rings are built differently, install the No. 2 ring so the manufacturer's Dot mark is facing upward on your piston. The order for installing piston rings is oil ring expander, top oil ring rail, lower oil ring rail, the intermediate No. 2 ring, then the upper No. 1 ring. First install the oil ring expander, then put one end of the upper side rail in the groove between it and the expander, press down and do the same for the lower side rail. To fit the intermediate piston ring, place the receiver and use the piston ring installer. Position the piston ring gaps so that the expander ring gap is not closer than 45° to either side rail gap and not directly on the piston pin or in the direction toward the engine thrust.
