Re: Piston Rings (Pete Fullam)

[JHarroun@aol.com]

Jim,

I am about to fire up my TR-3 engine after doing my first ever
re-build.  I've used cast iron rings, and set the gap according to
specs.  The previous owner couldn't get it started after installing 83mm
rings on 87mm pistons...
My question is, how should I set the rings while my car is confined to the
garage?  Any suggestions?
