Why do they put ring stop pin in two stroke engines, because the rings will rotate.
I always thought the reason for 2 stroke ring pins is to prevent the ring gap from rotating into a port and getting caught on the port edge causing damage.
I never understood how the ring gaps lining up was any worse that having the gaps be positioned 90 degrees apart. Can't the blow-by pressure simply travel between the rings snd squirt out just as easily?
Isn't that what I am implying?
Or have I miss read your reply
