Performance enhancements follow-up question 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be Joe in St Louis on  Mon Jan 26 03:57 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Old Timer Mechanic's Way of telling if oil is getting past the rings - Look at the carbon on top of the piston. If the carbon covers the whole top of the piston, you're ok. If the carbon is not deposited around the outside edge of the piston crown, oil is getting past the rings into the combustion chamber.

Hope this helps!
