I was being serious and apparently 100% wrong. The way it was explained and shown to me made perfect sense that if the sleeve is loose enough to allow the piston all the way to the top you will get way to much blow by to have sufficient compression, besides the fact that the engine will have no performance with the piston pretty much hitting the bottom of the button. i have also noticed that every time one of my engines totally crapped out, the piston reached the top of the sleeve..thanks for clearing it up for me, thats one of the reasons I love this forum so much..apologies for the misinformation..i guess if you are taught wrong you will spread the wrong advice until someone sets you straight
