What are broken piston rings likely to cause?

Broken piston rings are likely to cause a significant loss of engine compression, leading to poor performance and decreased power output. They can also result in increased oil consumption and potential oil leakage into the combustion chamber, causing excessive smoke and emissions. Additionally, damaged piston rings can lead to engine knocking and ultimately contribute to more severe engine damage if not addressed promptly.

Do piston rings rotate when engine is running?

Yes, piston rings do rotate as the engine runs, although this rotation is slight. As the piston moves up and down in the cylinder, the rings are subject to forces that cause them to rotate around the piston. This rotation helps ensure even wear and better sealing against the cylinder walls, which is essential for optimal engine performance. However, the primary motion of the piston rings is primarily linear, following the piston's movement.
