Rebuilding engine d16z6 and I need some assistance

By biretsu89
- Mon Jun 02, 2008 10:17 am #57290 The motor has only 90k miles on it.. but I am replacing the piston rings before I put the motor in my Vx. I have everything apart. I have the head off, oil pan off, harness off, intake mani off, and exhaust mani off. Do I remove the cradle to get to the pistons or what? I dont want to remove the whole freakin piston if its possible.. I only want to put in the piston rings... so any advice? thanks..

you might want to get a hayne's manual and read the engine re-building chapter before you go much farther.
