When inspecting piston rings for wear, what should you look for?

What will be an ideal response?


When inspecting rings for wear, look for the following:
1. When wear is due to dirty air getting in, the top ring will show more wear and vertical abrasive lines will be visible. Scratches will be visible on the cylinder wall in the area where the rings ride.
2. When ring wear is due to abrasives in the engine oil, the lower rings and cylinder wall will have more wear and the top ring will have less wear.
3. When abrasives cause wear, the bottom side of a ring will wear, leaving a lip on the outside edge.
