Might not be the appropriate forum, but I don't see one for engines.
Engine 3204DI when hot and working, pushes oil out of the dipstick. Not a little, like a gallon per hour!
Have motor disassembled. Since the motor is sleeved, must assume it has been rebuilt.
Here is the question:
I understand there is an upgrade piston available - 3 ring.
Does anyone have any experience with these pistons?
Are they any good? Are they cheap Chinese crap?
Because the 3204DI pushes the outer limits of the engine (99 horse) and rings are known to fail, thinking about these 3 ring pistons.
Ant insight would be helpful. Thanx
