Sealed Power Engine Piston Ring Set P/N:E-979K
Sealed Power E-978K piston ring set for the 2002-2010 Ford Explorer V6 4.0L and other vehicles seals each piston in its cylinder bore and helps control oil on the cylinder wall. This engine piston ring set covers six cylinders, and every Sealed Power piston ring in it is built to exacting tolerances.
Blue exhaust smoke, rising oil use or low compression can mean the rings are worn, though worn valve stem seals or a clogged PCV valve can be behind them too, so find the cause before you open the engine.
It fits a wide range of Ford and Mercury models, including the 2005-2010 Ford Mustang V6 4.0L and the 2002-2011 Ford Ranger V6 4.0L, and each engine takes one set. If your car is not named here, look up its year and engine in the "Vehicles it fits" section. The rings meet or exceed OEM specifications.
