It seems doing it the right way doesn't always equal success. Followed all the proper procedures. Ring gaps, piston clearance. Side clearance. Cleaning. Refurbished cylinders. New pistons and rings. Lightly oiled to get piston and rings into the cylinder. Then wipe down the walls to remove excess. Followed the break in routine. Acceleration and engine breaking. And the rings did not seat after. 900 miles.
So engine teardown and rebuild number 2.
And no guarantee the rings will seat.
So why is this not a problem for all modern engines? Subject of a new thread.
