Surely if it were the rings they would be a problem water oil mix or scratches in the bores?

Well the engine is getting there! few more bits to do before she back together. Safe to say i am aching like mad doing all this lol
Also a chance to sort a few little extra bits while i have all this room! Make a bracket to mount the dipstick, Get throttle body moved back an inch and strengthen throttle cable bracket.

Today had a little bit of a lazy one so ill be cracking on and finishing tomorrow i hope! Got my air filter intake taken to the welders so i can connect my breather pipe with a an6 fixing just to neaten the bay up ill use a stainless braided line for this.
