It wasn't rings , just ther starter must have jammed, andway, cleaned it up, decoke exhaust port, new big O-ring on starter, new Oring on carb , new viton needle.. top and bottom bearings good. Clean decompressor, It's a 2008 model. Needs a paintjob as rust is bubling under the Chinese paint job, I don't think they prime stuff. Runs well, starts easly. I don't need it so anyone can PM me an offer. Only trouble, I'm in Bundaberg.
