This is an 84 if that makes a difference. The manual shows one of the top rings is beveled or slanted, while the other is squared but I cant see it visually. One ring is marked "R" on top and is slightly larger, and all the same dark color. The other ring is marked "RN", is slightly smaller, and is silver metalic color on the oustide. Which one goes on top?

This is just an educated guess, but on automotive engines, you always place the moly, or in your case, the chrome ring in the top position.

Hi, I was told to put the letters facing up. The RN (silver in colour) on top then the R (black in colour) next, followed by the oil rings. Got the information from the boards and a local Honda dealer.

Thanks guys. The 2nd groove was a little deeper and that was my guess, but I dont like to guess. Thanks.
