How long have I been away 7 pages in to your rebuild already. When your finished fancy having a go at mine
Are you sure I have 2 well uncared for engines with no history and both have stood since 1990.You should have them done in a week or two
this thread is gonna break all uk records
I had to look again at the first set of pics you posted with the pistons. Now you look closely you can see the damage on the crown and the one pic you showed of the side where I commented that it was showing signs of compression loss past the rings as the skirt was burnt is No4 piston. I'm wondering though how you missed the gaping holes in the rest of them Julie, no amount of carbon would hide those holes. I've seen worse but not for many many years, damn that's a mess.
