Tobynblevins Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 I have light scratches in my fresh plated cylinder I have not started engine yet only moved flywheel to let piston go up and down. Notice a slight bit of resistance every now an then but not every single time the piston goes up and down it's just somtimes.. wondering if its normal for light scratches to appear with a new plated cylinder. Never started just turned bye hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keno Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 I can't tell what you are trying to show from the picture. There should be crosshatching on the cylinder walls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be crosshatching on the cylinder walls. It wont let me show a full picture it makes me crop it till it's so distorted.. power seal usa did the plating .. I dont know why there is a option to upload pictures because they make me crop them so much before i can upload them and it makes them blurry Edited February 16, 2020 by Tobynblevins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
375hp banshees Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Use tapatalk for pic's, what did u.s. say! did you lube piston, i can't imagine the piston would scar proper nilasil that easily, especially by hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deets Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Did you inspect pistons for any slight burrs on edges? Make sure all ports still have adequate bevel after plating? Clean and lube everything good before assembly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keno Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Contact who did it. Did you plate OEM cylinders? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
