Kyle, sticking rings simply mean that the ring groove is built up with carbon and goo from the cylinder walls and the rings are not floating in the ring grooves but are stuck solid in the position they are in.This might allow extra oil burning.Detergent oils are supposed to clean this gunk out of the engine but as has been pointed out if detergent oils were not used there's a lot of goop to be cleansed out and that can lead to some problems. Using marvel mystry oil or Risilone will remove a lot of the goop but you should drain the crankcase and start over with fresh oil after you have given it a good work out with the additive in the oil. good luck with the tractor...Mike in Exeter Ontario
