| International 1000B Engine >> REVISED PISTON ASSEMBLY FOR 7.3L DIESEL ENGINES |
Revised Piston and Ring Assembly On
Navistar 7.3L Diesel Engines
Navistar International has revised the piston and ring assembly for their 7.3L engines used in Ford light and medium duty trucks among others. The new pistons and rings are used in all engines manufactured as of serial number 598754. Prior engines use the former designs. The new assembly may be used in sets to update older engines when they are being remanufactured.
The revised piston features a taller top ring and oil control ring groove to accommodate the new plasma ring set. Since the former design rings will fit into the new piston, a mix-up is possible. However, loss of oil control and poor engine performance may result.
