To change the piston ring on a Contact Point TMX 155, first remove the cylinder head and cylinder by loosening the bolts and carefully lifting them off. Next, take out the old piston ring by gently expanding it and sliding it off the piston. Install the new piston ring by aligning it with the piston grooves and ensuring the gap is positioned opposite the connecting rod. Finally, reassemble the cylinder and head, ensuring all components are secure before testing the engine.
