Straight gassed? E.T.A. nice job cleaning it up, what method did you use?

What caused the scoring?

 

[ratman36]

I bought it off ebay,not sure if it was straight gassed but it was bad. I used sand paper on variable speed die grinder and red scotch bright pad smashed around screw driver and chucked up in my cordless drill,lol. It came out pretty good. Will post compression when I get my new ring and piston in.

You had better vac test that saw, or you're liable to end up in the same boat again.

Back together today fires up but dies quickly,think it is not getting fuel.Time to investigate.

So you won the ebay lottery - bought a saw with a trashed cylinder and it cleaned up like a prom queen! Nice job!
