rodey

anyone know were i can get a set of piston rings for a merc 25xd
think its 1984 or so, was layed up a good few years and rings were stuck,
tried to free them but they were too far gone so have it stripped and all clean up but need new rings,

Marine parts direct http://marineparts.ie/engine-parts/mercury-mariner/internal-engine-components/piston-ring-set/ should be able to get them in for you or you can get them here https://www.marineengine.com/parts/mercury-outboard-parts/25xd/6443973-thru-0b238463-usa/crankshaft-pistons-and-flywheel

They are not cheep so make sure the engine is worth the repair, if the piston rings were damaged the cylinder wall might also be scored so you could be looking at a rebore and then oversized piston rings.

just seems to e the rings compression was very low due to them being stuck
cyl walls are ok,
i seen a set on one of the sites but they were over 240 usd
and were comming up as a set of 12 rings , only 4 needed ,
must give marine parts a buzz,
be a pity to break it,
cheers
