Jeg justerte mine ringer helt etter instruksjonene som fulgte med, og det var muligens litt for trangt. Men jeg hadde ett lite uhell som gjorde at jeg må ha nye stempler, så om ringene var for trange er det for sent å finne ut...
utdrag av min mail:
Hello
I have totalseal rings in my engine, and i have gapped them to:
top ring 0.50mm = 0.1968"
second ring 0.35mm = 0.1378"
bore 91mm = 3.583"

Svar fra total seal:
Ole,
Your top ring gap looks good I would however increase the 2nd ring and rail gap to about the same as the top ring (.50mm). Oil ring gap looks good. One thing we run in to is tuning via Lambda & EGT has no bearing on octane rating please keep that in mind. I've seen many engines with AFR 10.8:1 have detonation issues as the fuel is not proper for the application. At least I see that here less experienced tuners will enrich the fuel mixture thinking they can use a low octane fuel and be safe. As we both know this is not true.

I recommend you set the top at .025” and the Second at .022”
