No, I need to get my hands on an inside mic. I am wondering about it being out of round.

I did do a compression check prior and had 130 psi. Kinda low, but figured it should increase once the rings were fully seated.

Head bolts were tightened in a criss sross manner with gradual increases in TQ. Unless there's a specific order to follow which I never read about?

I was hoping to just get a new set of rings, Prob worth getting the cyl checked for roundness before I buy anything I suppose.

As for the carbon build up, I've been running it on the rich side to help keep temps down for break in. Or maybe it was oil getting past the rings from the beginning?

Thanks X
