What makes piston ring selection and ring endgap so important to engine life and power? What's more, what makes that first engine firing so critical to proper break-in and longevity? Those first few ...
Piston rings have small gaps that allow them to expand during engine operation. If these gaps line up, fuel and gases can escape into the crankcase, causing loss of power and increased oil consumption ...

How-To File Fit Piston Rings
Engine building is technically a science, but the truth is that there is just as much art as there is science. Where most might think that the “art” part of engine building is in the design and ...
No matter how much we love them, our engines are still basically inefficient air pumps and need all the help they can get to make power. Like any other type of pump, if it leaks, it won't work. And ...
