What advice do you guys have for freeing up or cleaning piston rings? Almost 200k miles on an 2003 honda 2.4 4 cylinder. It's started burning oil recently, never noticable before. Now I need to top it off, I go through about 3/4 quart in 1k miles. Sometimes only 1/2 quart. I've been reading through here about upper engine cleaning and ring lubing. Just want to figure out the best thing to try. These motors are known to burn oil apparently. If the rings are sticking maybe I can help it out. If they are stacked wrong then I know I'm never fixing it, which I've read a tsb that the rings were installed/stacked wrong in many early 2.4s. Hoping that's not my case since the oil burn seems to have come on ony recently.
Thanks for any advice.
