chip off 026 piston
Got a freebie 026 that had very little compression. When i pulled the cilinder off, i found that the piston acctually had a chip broken off. On that side the piston sidewall has become very thin. Could this have caused the piston to start banging against the cylinder wall? Any thoughts about how this could have happened ? The other side of the piston has not worn off at all.

Planning to do a complete rebuild on this one.
