CALLING ENGINE GUYS/GALS

So if it measured out all right and they honed it and installed new rings and never ran the engine the rings aren't seated, correct? You might ask him what "freshened up" means...
Seller is long gone.......I am planning on tearing it down before installing it. Correct, the engine has never been run so you are right they are not seated. I was wondering if the "unseated" condition would account for the crappy leakdown readings.
