Calif. Farmall said: (quoted from post at 19:37:19 05/05/08) WOW!- Thats a lot of blow by. Did you have the problem before you changed the rings? Did you put each ring into the cylinder by itself and check the gap before installing them on the piston? It's possible you have the wrong rings, sleeves that are so worn or out of round that the rings won't seal. Now if your rings are correct and the cylinders checked out good you might check the compression on each cyl. and see if it's up to par. Look at each spark plug too see if one looks different or fouled. Also might try disconnecting one plug at a time too check if one cyl causes more blow by than others. It looks like a lot of pressure coming out, and my guess is if the problem wasn't there before the old rings had worn into the cyls egg shaped and the new rings may take years to seat in or never. Hope this gives you a few ideas, Dan.
1. Yep, checked the ring end gap, cleaned the grooves till they were sparkly, installed them with proper spacing.
2. I did to a leakdown and compression test, all was perfect. I might try a BDC test though.
3. All plugs are burning clean and the exhaust is clean as you can see too.
You know I never really checked to see if it did have this problem before. I pulled this thing out of the junkyard and began at once tearing it down but it did run and I guess I should have checked to see how it ran. :?

The whole experience can be marred if one moves too fast and makes too many assumptions that they can just use "as is" some parts they should be closely scrutinizing and possibly attended to.
