Good luck and keep us posted with what you find the problem to be and the fix...

Has the engine sat for a long time? Could the rings be rusted to the bores? If so, than that spray oil may help. What am I missing?

I mean... from what your OP reads, it sounds like you're in the middle of a rebuild and the motor has not yet been run, right? So I don't understand what's binding 2 & 3... When everything was on... can I presume you've had the head on(?)... did you spin the crank and everything moved ok? (just trying to understand where you are with all of this)
