Reply To: Need help with aftermarket cross reference (mercury–>lovell marine)

[Silencep77]

Thanks for the help! I had a piston ring break and am looking to replace it. Hard to find. That site you linked is great, but unfortunately they are out of stock. These lovell marines are the closest I’ve come that don’t cost an arm and a leg.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/388852368741

I was going to do a light deglazing with some maroon very fine scotchbrite and put the new ring on. Since this comes with 6, (3 per piston) I figured I’d do all 6, — or at least 3 — so they can seat together. I don’t really want to get into honing, and checking ring gap and if the cylinder is out if round. I don’t think there’s much I could do about that anyway if that was the case.
