I wouldn't have a clue dude, never opened up these 1.6 kjet engines..

Anyone else know?

[twin eng, twin turbs]

rings for the 1.6 k jet are as follows

top ring 0.070" thick

middle ring 0.080" thick

bottom oil scraper ring 0.160" thick.

how much wear is in the bores? Use an inside micrometer and measure top middle and bottom of the bores. If it has more than 0.005" wear and or an obvious step at the top of the bore get new 0.020" oversize pistons and bore and hone it.

Remember to measure the bore front-to-back and not side to side too.
