I have melted a piston ring in my ford puma 1600 y reg is this fixable?

Piston rings do not melt. (well they do, but at much higher temperatures than those that would melt a piston)

Get a second opinion.

I've seen it it's melted side of it

Two threads, same question, repetitive answers, none of which make sense, I sense a troll to be honest.

But in case I am being harsh, yes you can fix a piston ring, the cylinder head is nothing to do with the piston rings, and if you can't afford a used engine then you can't afford to repair it properly either.

And I think telling somebody how to change a melted piston ring in a single post on a forum is rather unrealistic.

I see I posted twice cos forgot putting piston problem on heading. New on this. It's at a garage. But the guy says he can do cylinder etc. But can't fix or change piston?

Hi,

I've been replying to his other thread, didn't realise he had two, but now makes me wonder if he knows what a piston ring is.

It had on the side of one of four was so hot apparently

Robboo25 · 9 February 2011 at 2:10AM

I know what one is. My question is can't it be fixed or replaced? On a ford puma 1600
