Looking for Volvo Piston Ring Kit or Aftermarket alternative 850 1996

Hello All,


I have a 1996 850 GLT wagon, non-turbo with a 5 speed. It has 291,000 miles on it. I may have to replace the piston rings soon due to reduced PSI in 3 of the cylinders. Volvo used to sell a “kit” that contained a piston ring(s) together with necessary hardware. You purchased one “kit” per piston. The part # for this ring “kit” is Part # 272159. Unfortunately that “kit” is no longer available.

Does anyone know where I could find these Volvo piston ring kits? In the alternative, can anyone recommend an aftermarket supplier of piston rings? Thank you in advance to all who reply.

Hugh
