Cheap supermarket oil is vastly superior to the non additve oils of the 20s, early 30s, hugely superior to the mild additive API SB, SC oils of the 1950s and superior to the SDs etc of the 1960s since when engine wear has been hugely reduced generally.
For an engine which does not ping broken lands unusual. After that mileage the ring gaps hardly too tight. Unusual for 2nd ring to fail and not a top ring.Has it ever locked up with water?
