Re: Weird - Oil ring pops out of groove while running on dyno

ring pops out when it rotates around to this area is the question
Rings don't rotate on the piston otherwise every manual out there would not tell you to put the gaps in a certain place on the piston. Those pistons do not require a support ring as the relief for the wrist pin does not go all the way up to the oil ring. I had one come out on me but as I look back I think I rolled it out when I put the piston in and it did destroy the bore
