Genuine Nissan 3mm Oil Piston Ring Set TD42 - Nissan Patrol Y60 GQ & Y61 GU

3mm Oil Piston Ring Set - Nissan Patrol GQ TD42 Late & GU TD42 N/A

This 3mm Oil Piston Ring Set is fitted into the grooves on the outer diameter of each piston within your engine. Piston rings are crucial for sealing the combustion chamber, transferring heat from the piston to the cylinder wall, and controlling oil consumption. This set is required when rebuilding an engine or if the original rings have worn out, leading to a loss of engine performance.

If you don't replace worn or damaged piston rings, your vehicle will suffer from a significant loss of compression, resulting in poor engine power and difficulty starting. You may also notice excessive blue smoke from the exhaust, which is a sign that engine oil is bypassing the rings and burning in the combustion chamber. This leads to high oil consumption and can eventually cause catastrophic engine damage due to oil starvation or fouled components.
