Ring end gaps appear to be in spec. But, did you have them installed correctly? There is a top and bottom side to them. The top side is usually marked with a letter or number stamped into it. It must face up or the ring won't work correctly and seal.
I forgot to mention that. Yep, at least one of them was on upside down. The oil rings were way out. I could have measured the gap in full millimeters. both rails and control ring. So I'll need to order rings to get those, and like GLJ said, not worth the risk of the rings being damaged so I'll replace everything.
Other than a ring end grinder, is there another way to do a satisfactory job of filling the rings if needed?
