Smokey 20V

[isac]

I don't feel any amusement to tell you this but "I TOLD YOU!!"

You missed the opportunity to do a proper engine rebuild. Piston rings are not cheap but affordable at same time (NPR). The pictures you show me didn't look like the rings bed in at all, cross hatch look to deep or maybe is a matter of glazed walls, really don't know for sure, I'm not an expert



20w50 only be a temporary fix, that engine will blow soon or later.

Buy some rings, stem seals, OEM head gasket, resurface the head, etc., bed in with Millers Oils CRO 10w-40 Competition Running In Oil, change the oil and filter and voilà.

I did this (more than this by the way ) to my engine bought from a scrapyard and now runs on Motul 300V POWER 5W40 without any oil consumption.

Save some money and do it properly this time.
