squonk 41,100 #7 Posted October 14 Run that piston to the top and check it's edge closest to the exhaust valve for erosion. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prondzy 3,881 #8 Posted October 16 Does it smoke when you run it? If not put it back together. If it does then rebuild it 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
