I know the title sounds a bit misplaced since most people here talk about their V8s.
A dumb question on engine overhaul, which I am about to do. Say in a situation where the problem is caused by broken piston ring, and the lining is still ok, should i just change the piston ring and done with it, or should i get a new lining too?
I know if I were to refer the standard overhaul practise, since it takes hell a lot of effort to dismantle the engine, might as well change the lining too, but I just wanna know whether or not changing the piston ring without changing the lining is OK. What are the considerations?
