Subject: Piston rings
Has anyone successfully crossed over standard size rings for a 3.5 litre,
9.35:1 compression motor? I'm looking for an 'off the shelf' set, standard
size. Rover seems to have modified the width of the ring, making the original
Buick spec'd size obsolete. The Rover rings and grooves are narrower.
calibers, so they can use their ammo in your rifle, but you can't use
theirs). An option that exists is to measure the old rings and grooves, then
"build" a set (it's just a 3.5" piston), but I believe something already
exists, other than the obscenely high priced Rover product. Curiously, this
is only true for the compression rings, and not so for the "scrubber". If
anyone has any experience in resolving this, please e-mail me direct, as
today's was the first digest I've gotten in weeks....
Thanks,
jim 'up to my eyeballs in Rovers' d

Subject: problems
I am sure glad that this server is back on. I need help before I go to the
local mechanic. In damp 30-50-ish weather,my 89 rr starts fine. But when the
temp gauge begins to rise into the white zone, the idle goes nuts (up to
about1500-2000). When one tries to go, the beast stalls out, and is
difficult if not impossible to start for a few minute. I can also smell
unburnt petrol. The car runs fine after that.
I know there are a million sensors, but what is every(any)body's opinion on
the prime suspect.
1. CO sensor ?
2. Coolant temp senor (s)
3. Move to a drier warmer area
thanks for any opinion response
