Parts for Mtd 170-PU: Pu Crankcase Parts

This is a piston ring set for use in various types of small engines. Piston rings help to maintain the gas compression between the cylinder wall and the piston. They ensure that the gas generated during ignition does not leak. When the piston rings go bad, it could result in gray or white smoke from the exhaust, poor performance, and excessive oil consumption.Dirt and normal wear and tear can take a toll on the piston rings. Fuel flooding could also cause damage to the rings. Poor lubrication could cause problems with the piston rings, as well. If there are problems with the rings, owners will want to replace them soon. These piston rings are compatible with certain machines from Cub Cadet, MTD, Yard Machines, Troy-Bilt, Columbia, and Craftsman. This piston ring set is sold individually and comes with four of the piston rings. They are genuine OEM parts that have been sourced from the manufacturer and are made from high-quality material.

Pistons are essential for proper engine function. When expanding gases push the piston, it turns the crankshaft. When the piston compressed the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites and causes combustion. If the pistons are going bad, owners might notice white or gray exhaust smoke, low power when accelerating, loss of performance, or excessive oil consumption.Pistons may need to be replaced for any number of reasons. They could have damage to their crown, which could be caused by overheating. There could be impaction marks if they were not installed correctly or if the valve timing is incorrect. The pistons could be fused or have elements that have melted, or there could be cracks in the piston. Any of these issues would necessitate a replacement.This piston is used for select small engines from MTD, Troy-Bilt, Yard Machines, Columbia, and Cub Cadet. Each piston is sold individually and is a genuine OEM part sourced from the manufacturer. Those who need to replace more than one piston will need to buy them separately.
