Which outcome occurs when an engine piston cools unevenly?

💡 Explanation

Piston ring micro-seizure develops because differential contraction across the skirt increases friction by *thermal distortion*, therefore contact pressure rises locally causing adhesive wear; rather than even wear which would indicate proper ring lubrication and cylinder conformity.
