We are reinstalling a banshee motor, and we polished up the pistons(took off the carbon buildup) and we realized there are arrows on the piston. Now i wonder to myself.....Do these arrows point forward on the pistons or back? by this I mean do the arrows point forwards toward the front of the engine or towards the back. Also i don't think it matters much, but do the pistons matter which side they are on(left, right) I don't think so but I might as well ask.

I hope I get a fast reply, as we are putting it back together right now, But as long as I get help I am greatful.

Thanks guys

Arrows forward...if they are the same pistons that were in it already..they should go back in the same cylinder they came out of. (with the same rings). The sleeve has worn itself in to those pistons.

make sure you center the rings on the pegs in the ring grooves as well.

OK what if i don't know which piston came from which cylinder?

Oh and the machine is only like 3 months old so it shouldn't be woh that much. I think ima go ahead and throw it together as is, with the arrows forward.

The windows in the piston go on intake side.
