Always Lurking, never posting
Ok built this kit last year. The cylinder that came with the saw had a minor defect on the wall. Received a partial refund. Ordered a Everest cylinder off eBay. Installed tuned and ran the saw a few times playing around. Fast forward a few months and couldn’t get saw to start. Assumed it was flooding, went through carb all looked good, still flooding. Replaced carb same issue. While trying to clear the cylinder with plug out noticed metal flakes on rag. Completed a compression test 125psi was 170+ when built. Pulled cylinder and found this. No noticeable damage to piston. Hopefully you can see the cracks. Thoughts.
