This engine has a splash oiling system and valves in the block. Can the new rings suck oil up through the intake valve. Going to install new club car rings and both valves however I do not want to have to take it apart again. any suggestions???
Sounds like that might be your problem; oil seeping down the the valve stem will be burnt in the combustion chamber.
