    Dale, I don’t think that the ring gap is going to be "less"
    at the top of the bore than the .014 at the bottom, so
    I’m not going to bother trying to measure at the top
    of the bore. It’s a $20 outboard, and it’s not like it’s going
    to be bored over size, etc., therefore, "It is what it is"!
    I’ll stick it back together and see if it runs. Maybe de-glazing
    will give me a little more compression.

    Prepare to be boarded!
