Compression numbers jumping up from 5-7bar dry to 10-12bar wet strongly suggests it's a ring sealing issue.

What can I do then?

Swap the pistons about, new rings?

.........crush into a expensive paperweight ?

Just been doing some reading.........

Possible scenario.....

What if the engine was running super lean, causing temps to rise high........could this affect ring tension?
