Parts mistake

So, after raving the other day about how nice it was to have boxes and bags of brand new parts for the TR6, I now find the piston rings are all wrong. It was a sealed box of Plus 0.030″ rings as specified but whats actually in the box was 4 sets at plus 0.030″ as requested and two pistons worth of what can only be plus 1/4″ none of this odd thou stuff. Obviously wrong, so now I have fitted Four pistons and cannot do the last two, whilst I await replacements.

When it came to sizing the rings in the bore, one realised there was a slight issue, not a gap as much as an overlap!

Putting the big and correct rings together one can se the huge size difference, I think some pissed off employee got bored when packing the boxes?

So there we stop again, four pistons fitted and need to saint the others in the post. Once i have them I can finish off the engine for next door.
