Can't tell from the photos. Easiest way to check is wind it over so the pistons are all half way down the bore then put a cup full of diesel in each bore and see if it stays there.

Thanks for that. I have done exactly that but with oil. Maybe I will drain the oil and try with diesel. Thanks

So if diesel drains passed the rings is it new rings?

Depending on how long it takes, to have no compression (because of the rings) it'd just disappear straight down into the sump within a couple of minutes.

Can you see any honing marks? Are there any significant ridges near TDC, or flowing down the bore?

No ridge or scoring then just run with it.

Popped some diesel in the bore last night, was still there this morning but has seeped through by teatime today. I guess it will make its way through the gaps in the rings over 18 hours?? Does that sound about right?
