K kaliona Member Mar 21, 2020 #1 I am resealing the engine on this blower and want to be sure to install the piston correctly. How do I space the ring gaps relative to each other and relative to the crankshaft? Thanks for your help.

StarTech Lawn Royalty Mar 22, 2020 #5 Kinda a mute point since it is a 4 mix engine. A 4 cycle non ported cylinder and not a 2 cycle ported cylinder.
