SCRAPER RINGS OF THE GROOVE TYPE. With reference to By.3/G.16.11.36., we have done the majority of our oil consumption tests on the Bentley. We should, therefore, like the special rings made to suit this engine; incidentally, in this case, they could also be used on the 25/30 as the rings are interchangeable.
