piston position,

[pablo]

just took my cy 26 apart to change the crank seals and bearings ,but i,ve forgot wot way the piston go,s back in , is it with the little ,o, on the crown of the piston towards the exhaust port,?????????????/

 

[renbar]

yes mate mark on the piston top goes toward exhaust port if its not marked as i have one with no mark on then look on the groove for the ring where the little pin is where the ends of the ring sit then that goes the inlet side

You have an arrow or dot on the piston,that should face the exhaust.
