This excess oil causes fouled spark plugs, heavy carbon deposit and smoky exhaust to say nothing of excess ive oil consumption. This kind of motor needs a McQuay-Norris Supcrcu6 Ring in the top groove of each piston. This ring is made with a special oil reservoir which collects the excess oil from the cylinder walls on the down-stroke of each pis ton, leaving just the film that you need for proper lubrica tion. The position and shape of this oil reservoir cannot be obtained in any other ring. The SupsrcyG Ring will also maintain compression as Always Use the Genuine well as any welWmade one piece ring can do but should, always be used incombination with McQuay-Norris i..sM Piston Rings in the lower grooves to turn all the fuel you pay for into power. Both rings are made in every size and over-size to fit every make and model of motor.
