Hi,

=20

the pistons last quite a while=85.5-10 years.

The rings need to be replaced every 3-4 years maybe, if they start =
leaking.

The liners, some last, others crack.

Cheers

Chris

Betreff: [Fot] TR4 piston & liner life span

=20

Greetings FoT,

I just finished perfect season sans one session where I snapped off my =
gas
pedal but better that than the brake.

After two great seasons on the motor I started seeing some fluxuations =
in my
oil pressure so I=92m going to go ahead and rebuild it.

I=92ll do a compression test today after a quick spin around the =
neighborhood.

Anyway, I just wanted to see what folks typically get for piston & liner
life. I=92m really only seeing a couple seasons.

Thanks for the input,

Jim g
