Kingfisher piston ring gap

Post by Philpy »

I have my kingfisher in pieces due to the Conrod snapping. I have a replacement, and was going to fit new rings whilst it’s apart.
My question is what gap should they have?
The manual for the QB series doesn’t mention gap clearance?
Yet the manual for older models says 0.004 inch (0.1mm)

0.004" is cool.

Enjoy
