After the bad compression test results, I decided to check my engine.

Everythings seems to be OK but I had 400PSI on two cylinders.

I would like to change the rings but I need to know which rings are good for a 1.9L TD? How much? Where?

Thanks

just changing rings wont do a hole lot you would have to deglaze the bore to get any good results.
