Why Piston Ring Set is Essential 🚗

A piston ring set is a vital engine component ensuring a tight seal between the piston and cylinder wall. It keeps combustion gases in the chamber for maximum power and stops oil from entering the combustion area. Without efficient rings, the engine loses pressure and runs poorly.

How Piston Rings Work ⚙️

These rings fit into grooves around the piston. During engine operation, they seal the combustion gases above the piston and scrape excess oil off the cylinder wall, sending it back to the oil pan. This process guarantees correct compression and minimal oil usage.

Consequences of Broken Piston Rings 🛑

Damaged rings lead to low compression, loss of power, increased oil consumption, and blue smoke from the exhaust. If ignored, engine wear accelerates, possibly resulting in full engine failure.
