piston ?


Recommended Posts

i was taking a close look at the pistons to see if i could see a number on them but didnt see any. what i did find is that both pistons move side to side a little bit. is this normL? is it possable i can just get new rings to fit the cylinder instead of boring it out and stuff?

Yeah a good amount of side to side slide is normal on the piston pin

but there should be zero wobble or play. It should be a tight slide, just

how I like it. If the piston is not burnt or scored on the skirt and the

bore is measured to be within spec tolerance for the piston then you

can run a hone through the cylinder and throw on a new set of rings.

Wrong forum section by the way.

youd be a lot better off not doing a halfass rebuild job. just have it bored to the next size up and do it right.

yep, get it done right..

 

It will pay off in the end!
