you redid your motor w/ new rings (i'm guessing), and didn't bother to rehone? If so, your rings will take longer than usual to seat, if they will at all. You'll be burning oil for a while.

good luck with that. rings need the cylinders to be roughed up in order to seat properly. even if you could still see crosshatching on the walls it's not enough.
