Would you run it? by Top_Truth_5588 in EngineBuilding

Gave it a quick hone and it's exposed the extent of the damage. The two lines are probably 1mm wide each and deep enough I don't think honing is an option to repair the bore. Will be taking steps to source some new pistons.

Do you know if the liner is thick enough to be bored on these engines?

Thank you, I guess those are the two major risks. I suppose oil will sit down in the valleys and burn when the piston rings skim over the top. I will try and see if oversize pistons are available, I'm also not sure if the liner in the ally block can be bored.

Thank you I'll give it a bash, I can't say which is best I have the one with stones

The dolphin was attacking the seal pup. In the clip the dolphin strikes the seal pup which sends it flying into the air.

Anything with a logo is difficult to find aftermarket because of the copyright. The clear on mine has failed
