Jim and others,
Thanks for the comments and information. In looking at the I & T manual, I see the allowable side clearance for the compression ring is 0.001 - 0.0025, not .035. This doesn't effect me as I have new pistons and rings, but is is important to make corrections of any incorrect statements so that others won't make a mistake as a result of the erroneous statements.
I got the information on side clearance from the original service manual, which I do not have here at home now to check my earlier statement. But you are correct in the side clearance information.
I will try to find a set of top compression rings, or reorder a complete new set. A complete set of rings will cost me $44.00 plus shipping so this is a costly mistake.
