Hey -- in your video you position rings on pistons relative to one another. Is that really important -- that the gap of one is at 12 and the 2nd at an angle relative to it?
Another question -- when honing, I noticed that I got streaks (approx. 30 deg angle) and no top band of different shade on cyl 1 -- but not on the rest
I wonder if that is because the grit pads collected oil/residue from cyl 1 and were not as abrasive
do you think I should have cleaned the pads before each cylinder and with what?
e.g. chemically (alcohol or acetone) or with a grander and a flapdisk
I'm really not envisioning what you're saying, but realistically, with what you're doing, you're just trying to break the glaze and that's it. I'm sure it's going to be fine. I don't clean my hone stones between cylinders.
