    I sounds to me like the engine has to come apart and the rings totally freed up, grooves cleaned out. (By the way, what do the cylinder walls look like?) This engine has been waiting 57 years for somebody like you to come along and show it some real love. Right now, it is just getting Christen Science. C’mon. Make it proud! 😆

    Long live American manufacturing!
