Philosophically, I have a hard time with grasping liquid fuel collecting on the walls of the cylinder.

But, it's quite well know that the lubricating oil in most diesels will suffer from some fuel dilution. So, if you take the adamant stance against any fuel bypassing the rings............how do you propose the fuel ends up in the lube oil?
