   I had the students practice their "fitting" (mostly filing) by making   
   piston rings for the 2 strokes out of cast iron pipe  - 5 of the 15   
   students actually got their engines to fire up!!!!   
   ---------------------------   
   "The Gods Must Be Crazy" has a lot of fun with a Land Rover whose   
   native-installed new pistons or rings were fitted too tightly for the   
   starter to move, so it had to be left running unattended and tended to chase   
   off into trouble.   
      
   I got them a little too snug on a rebored dirt bike and had to stop to cool   
   off at any hint of binding.
