So I'm about 3/4's done with my valve/plugleak/rings project, I had
planned about 2 days total for the job and it has been well over
a week already cause of some time restraints and a few mistakes
I've made while working on the engine; I'll tell y'all all about it
soon (w/pics!), mainly about what a P in the A all this has been
while at the same time a very enjoyable learning experience.
...anyway, my question:
Does one somehow have to break-in NEW RINGS on a 10k engine?Only valve seals were changed and valve seats redone; both the PISTON
and CYLINDER were/are in very good shape but I changed the rings anyway,
all else including timing-chain tensor was ok and head bolts were torqued
as close as possible to what specified in manual, sorda (maybe a bit tightish).
PLEASE advise, thx
