I always lightly honed the cylinders with a fine stone. Are you
saying not to do this?

I think it was not mentioned because honing is a 'given'.
By all means, hone the cylinders so the new rings will break in.

Thanks for the suggestions. I just took another look another look at my
engine in the daylight. There is a small ridge at the top of the
cylinder and a minor amount of corrosion on one side of the cylinder.
Should I buy a honing tool to fit an electric drill and polish these out?
Best wishes,
Chris
