[QUOTE="Geezer, post: 538069, member: 436"] There was a post by Jestal a while ago where he recommended that we wind the engine up under load in second gear and abruptly back off the throttle every once in a while. That would cause the rings to actually spin in their grooves and keep the grooves clean. I haven't actually done it specifically for that reason, but that kind of riding is part of my normal squidly technique. :rolleyes: :o [/QUOTE]
