I dragged my 12 year old, engine building apprentice out to the garage today (it's about 38 degrees or so at the moment). I had him measure the top and second ring gaps in the cylinders. I had to keep reminding him not to "saw" the feeler gauge but gently see if it passes between the ring ends. Only had to remind him 16 times. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Top gaps were .016 and second ring gaps were .020 after doing some mix and matching between the cylinders.
