Hi everyone, good day all.

I own a Rover Mini 1.3 Injection model, its a red engine and it is a japanese model of 1994.

i am having troubles on identifying what are the piston rings used for my car when i attempt to make a purchase from minispares as for my restoration.

By any consideration or help, i really thank anyone who would help me show which is the piston ring set that fits my car according the stated specs.

These should work. Check the side groove clearance before you buy new rings. If you can fit a 0.12mm feeler blade between the side of the ring and the grove in the top ring groove the pistons are junk.

Check with your existing rings. Those rings fit a 21253 piston which uses an r41570 ring pack which will also fit your pistons. If it does not, I’ll buy them off you!
