Piston Identification
The piston may have or may not have an identification mark for
piston placement. If the piston has an identification mark, follow
the directions for piston placement below. If the piston does not
have an identification mark, the direction for placement of the
piston does not matter.
Note the directional and identification marks when viewing the
pistons from the top. The letters “IN” must always be toward the
intake side of the engine. The other numbers are used for
identification as to diameter, length and design. Four stroke
engine rings are rectangular profile. Any numbers or letters on
the rings (except oil control rings) must be positioned upward.
See text for oil control ring upper rail installation.
