When your Ford tractor’s engine starts burning oil or you’re seeing blue smoke coming out of the exhaust, worn piston rings are usually the culprit. This piston ring set restores proper compression and oil control, getting your trusty workhorse back to running like it should. No sense having your engine work harder than it needs to when a ring set can fix most cylinder sealing issues.
What You’re Getting
- Complete ring set for all cylinders – compression rings and oil control rings included
- Precision-machined rings that seat properly in standard bore cylinders
- Quality construction that meets OEM specifications for reliable performance
- Restores compression and stops excessive oil consumption that costs you money
Built for Real Farm Work
This ring set fits a wide range of Ford and Ford New Holland tractors with the 256 CID four-cylinder diesel engine. From compact utility tractors to row-crop machines, these are the workhorses you see pulling implements, running PTOs, and handling loader duties day in and day out. Whether you’re cultivating fields, baling hay, or moving materials around the farm, proper ring seal keeps your engine running efficiently.
Made to Last
These rings are built to handle the constant heat cycles, pressure changes, and demanding conditions that farm engines face. Quality materials and precise manufacturing ensure they’ll seat properly and maintain compression for years of reliable service. The oil control rings do their job of keeping lubricant where it belongs – in the crankcase, not burning in the combustion chamber.
Good to Know
Ring installation requires removing pistons from the engine, so this is typically part of a larger overhaul project. Make sure your cylinders are within spec – if they’re worn or out-of-round, you’ll need machine work before new rings will seal properly. A good machine shop can measure your cylinders and let you know if they need attention first.
