The original piston rings in your Toyota vehicle form a seal between the engine piston and cylinder wall. This keeps the combustion gases in the chamber, improves heat transfer from the piston to the cylinder wall, and helps prevent oil from entering the combustion chamber.
What Piston Rings Do
Most pistons have a set of three rings. The top two press tightly against the cylinder wall to seal the combustion chamber. The third ring, or oil ring, scrapes oil from the cylinder wall and deposits it back into the oil sump. This maintains optimal oil consumption and helps deliver ideal engine performance.
How to Identify Symptoms of Piston Ring Damage
Eventually, though, even the highest quality piston rings can begin to fail. Signs of this include:
- Your "Check Engine" light engages
- Reduced engine power
- A loss of acceleration
- Excessive oil consumption
- Thick, white, bluish, or gray smoke coming from the exhaust
