🛠️ Service Notes

• 3886774 is the near-identical kit for rating 4-5 engines from a stated serial onwards, so check rating and serial before ordering
• Measure bore wear and ring gap before fitting, as new rings in a worn bore will not seal
• Fit the rings the right way up and stagger the gaps as the manual specifies
