Re: help please (specRtunedgSr)
some minor scarring on the cylinder walls is fine, as long as it doesn't catch your finger nails, you're usually okay.
a lot of times, when your ringland or ring gave out, the excess carbon from misfiring combustion makes the ring sticks, to where they won't expand at all and they will not even touched the cylinder walls, since they are not expanding.
Did you try to do a leakdown test before pulling out the head ?
