[QUOTE="CATDiezel, post: 1304695, member: 4387"] I'm rather befuddled and alarmed at the folks being "alarmed" of blowby. Blow by in a sense is a good thing. Seems a relearn is needed on every generation of new diesel owners. Keystone rings contract and expand with heat and linear to load. Measuring blowby is best under a constant load. And in short.... gapless rings are a terrible idea from a longevity standpoint. Those with gapless rings fully intend on having the engine apart from time to time for a freshing up. For the man looking for longevity from a "built" motor. Best to stick to stock keystone style gapped rings. Blowby is your friend up to a certain point. [/QUOTE]
