Doesnt have to be 180 mate as long as they're similar.

Not sure how rings would go so quickly?!

Is this due to using the ring you did or another reason? What is the solution otherwise?

Right this morning i noticed that there was water from the exhaust so checked my coolant and she is low so could be head gasket is letting water into cylinder
My oil is good no milkyness which is good
My thinking is if water got into my cylinder could this of done my rings in so that i would get blow by as i get smoke from the dipstick?

So basically what im thinking is the whole lot has got to be stripped right down and the head gasket has to be replaced, rings need replacing the worst outcome it could of ever been!!!:Chair:

All i all 4 steps forward 48 back Sad

Oh and to top it off the alternator has give up this morning volts just drop off and she dies lol when it rains it pours!!!
