<VV> total Turbo oil smoke

[Dennis Pleau]

I've been around on this list since 1993.  Total Seal rings are either the
best thing since air cooled Chevy's or they blow smoke.  I'm not sure why
they work great for 50% of the people and never seat for others.  

I would never use them because I don't want to change the rings again if the
first set doesn't work (cheep and lazy).  It's like adjusting valves cold or
hot, but it doesn't come up as often.

Oh so been there! I am now running conventional rings and she's smoke free.
When I removed the Total Seals, I noticed there was no tension on all of the
compression rings.

Hi Jim, 


Were the Total seals in the top or second groove?
