And the piston needs to be pushed in from the top! Especially if you have
the three piece oil rings. Otherwiese they get caught up in the notches for
the pin to clear.

Got the hesitant piston out of my 2.1 yesterday. Putting the piston back in,
I broke the oil ring. Does anyone have just the oil ring, or a single piston
set? Piston diameter is 93.98.

Thanks,

Jim (who will use the right ring compressor next time)
