piston rings

[ChineseMafia]

i find this to be verry unfair that this question has been posted twice and yet no one has found it neccary to help the fellow brethen by answering a simple question

all we wanna no is : do the 4EFE and 4EFTE engines use the same bearings and rings

also do the 5EFE and 4EFTE engines use the same bearings and rings

bump!

definately not.

none of the engines use the same piston rings.

the turbo ones are stronger than the none turbo ones, as they have a higher heat to deal with. the same goes for the pistons.

the rods are different, on the 5e series and the 4e series

the big end bearings are are the same on the 4efe and 4efte. but there are 4 types. they should be marked numbers 1-4, but when i rebuilt my engine there was no mark that made any sense.

i hope this helps.

starlet rick indicated to me that the bearings and rings were all the the same

ok, starlet rick is half right.

the 4efe and 4efte big end bearings,and rods are the same. the piston rings and pistons are different.

the 5efe gear is completely different.

what you can do though is put 4efte pistons and piston rings on a 5efe rod. effectively making a 5efte

what i have just said is what i wrote above.

the 5efe rods are longer than the 4e ones

and even if they were the same its the crank that makes the didderence in displacment not the rods
