I've got about 1400 miles on the R460 now and thinking about pulling the jug and installing a new ring. With my compression gauge "shoved" in the plug hole and three good pulls on the starter, I only get 100 psi. She's getting a little weak on bottom end and hills that I was pulling with ease at 38 degrees, are pulling her down at 65 degrees. I'm going to install the .005" copper cylinder gasket for more compression.
Anyone ever re-ringed the 460 without replacing the jug? The ring is less than $6, so trying the short route first, won't cost me much more than a little time.
What say you?
