[DML] Re: Piston rings + sleeves

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sounds to me like you have a vacuum leak and maybe a plugged up
injector. Before you go tearing the motor apart you should deal with
these problems first, you may not have any need to do the whole motor
unless you really want to just to do it and say it was done. The
reasons you mention still have not convinced me it is necessary. One
owner in our club (who has since passed on) DID do a conversion and
last I heard it was running well. He did it because he didn't
understand fuel injection and wanted to "tinker".
