| I have a lawnboy 10247 that needs new piston rings, i found a set for $42 on partstree.com, but on mfgsupply.com the set costs $3. The rings from partstree.com were for a 10247, which i believe is the E block, and the 3 dollar rings were for an F block. My question is are the rings interchangeable? Is the bore the same size? Any help would be much appreciated. |

| NO. But I sure would look for other sources for the "E" or DuraForce rings. Walt Conner |

| Thank you Walt, I will definitely search for a different source for the rings because $42 dollars seems a little unreasonable for two piston rings. Maybe there's a good reason, but I've never payed that much for rings while rebuilding an engine. Dave |

| The partstree price includes the piston. You might check an auto parts store that carries Hastings rings. Is that the 2-3/8" bore with 1/16" rings? |

| Contact me at address below, put in proper format and remind me what we are talking about and I MAY be able to direct you to where you can get help. This site will probably not let me post that. Walt Conner |

| bill, I believe the Duraforce is a 2.5" diameter piston. |
