if anybody would know this you would so correct me if I'm wrong but, wasn't there a point in time where piston ring designs changed and thus required a finer grit final hone? Could this have caused this problem with guys thinking it was the synthetic oil at fault? I know guys who had incorrectly honed their cylinder walls and ran regular oil had issues with proper ring seal. What's your thought about this and has anyone that you know of tried to break in an engine recently with synthetic?
