Can you expand on this a little more? I looked in the service manual and it stated to put the top compression ring gap facing the exhaust valves(headlight), the second compression ring gap 180 degrees from that, so facing the intake valves(tailight), and then the oil ring gaps 30-40 degrees from the top compression ring.....Am i doing it wrong?
Rocking it on from opposite the ring gap sounds like the best plan so far, i like that. i'm not sure why i didn't think about that, i guess i was more worried about making sure that the piston stayed even going into the cylinder.
