#96363, "RE: anyway to test piston rings before install?" In response to In response to 5
I wouldn't chance it I put some supposedly used but good rings in my engine and now it burns quart of oil ever 100 miles go with new set of rings, you'll be out for the 3 new rings you got but its some piece of mind. it did seal up good though but its burning oil must be the oil control rings.I guess a machine shop can check if the rings are good but it has to be cut to fit into a bore and everyone bore isn't perfectly the same.
