[Healeys] Overdrive Piston Rings

[David Nock]

The wide rings are expander rings and go first. Then the narrow rings go on. Do you have the pump out. If so take a close looks at the ball seat. They usually wear on one side, and will need to have a new seat cut so the check ball seats good on the pump body. 
This is a common problem causing low Previn the overdrive
