Cylinder/Ring Wear Issue

<< < (2/2)

msundstrom:
Yes, injected nitro and 12.23:1 compression

BK:
Could the ring issues be from the piston cocking in the bore like it does?

THE FRENCHTOWN FLYER:
My thoughts too. Above the top ring land is usually several thousandths smaller in diameter than the skirt and for it to be contacting the wall so heavily I wonder if you have too much bore clearance, exacerbated by an unfavorable L/R ratio?
