Hello all, Man, am I feeling like a rookie, but a dumb question is better than a dumb mistake, right? I just fitted the oil ring (3 pieces) and it seems rather loose (in circumference). Does it tighten around the piston when it's compressed? It almost seems that it's going to have to scrunch up a bit, since the ends of the center portion (forgot what it's called) are butted up against each other. I don't want to compress it till I know for sure I haven't maybe been given rings for a Borgwart or ? Thanks, Karl Wolz
