    rings bad, to rebuild head?

    true,. the oil did smell like gas. but i'm still using the same old intake manifold and map sensor and all sensors as the old motor. no problems so far on the new motor except for a slight hesitation/bog between 2500-3000 (then big surge of power at 3000 rpm), not sure.

    na doesn't smell sweet or like coolant. it smells like gas. doesn't overheat or use coolant. but there's oil on the tips of the spark plugs. and new spark plugs are very black in 10 miles.

    hey, yea i checked that, no oil on the top side. there's oil comming from inside the cylinder (oil on the plug tips where the electrode is). there's no oil where the plug wires go. it's all dry there. valve cover gasket/ sparkplug seals are new btw
