I have an older bauer/poseidon 200lpm, 200 hours regular synthetic oil changes, and it has quit a case of blow by..around 40 to 50 lpm.
3rd stage is nice, 1st stage rings have not even seated yet.
I have a spare set of 2nd stage rings handy, metal, coating with something black.
The 2nd stage bore is beautiful, piston is good, it will take 2 hours to swap the rings...think it is worth it ? If so, do I have to hone the bore ?
I have read about dozens of ring replacements but no mention of honing the cylinder bore.
Thanks !
