ring condition test

[libertyc <libertyc@erols.com>]

Hello Group - I pulled the head on the TR6 yesterday, and someone 
offerred the following test to determine whether I needed new rings.  
Pour some water/antifreeze into the cylinders and let it sit overnight.  
If any of it leaks out, your rings should be replaced.  If not, they are 
ok.  It this a dependable method?  

Also, someone on the list regapping the oil pump.  Can I do this rather 
than replacing an 80,000 mile pump?
