Description
When your John Deere diesel is burning oil, blowing blue smoke out the stack, or just not pulling like it used to, worn piston rings are often what’s stealing your power. You know the signs – harder starting, less compression, and that oil consumption that keeps you checking the dipstick more than you’d like. This ring set gets your 152 cubic inch three-cylinder engine back to sealing properly and running with the smooth power you need for a full day’s work.
What You’re Getting
- Complete set for one cylinder with 2 compression rings at 3/32 inch and 1 oil control ring at .196 inch
- Precise 3.86 inch bore size that matches your original equipment specs exactly
- TISCO quality construction built to handle the high compression and heat cycling of diesel engines
- Direct replacement design that installs with standard ring installation tools
Built for Real Farm Work
This ring set is designed specifically for the 152 CID three-cylinder diesel engines found in earlier John Deere compact and utility tractors. These engines powered everything from loader work to mowing, PTO operations to light tillage. Whether you’re running a older 850, 950, or similar model, these rings restore the compression and oil control that keeps your tractor running efficiently through long work days.
Made to Last
TISCO builds their piston rings to handle the harsh conditions inside diesel engines – high compression ratios, constant heat cycling, and the contaminants that come with farm work. These rings are manufactured to maintain proper tension and sealing through thousands of operating hours.
Installation Notes
Ring installation requires engine disassembly and proper measuring tools to ensure correct fit. Check your cylinder bore for wear or scoring before installing new rings – sometimes cylinders need honing for proper ring seating. If you’re rebuilding multiple cylinders, order one set per cylinder. Take your time with the installation – proper ring gap and positioning is what makes the difference between a quick fix and a lasting repair.
