This is kind of a continuation of this thread: https://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/325806/
But I started a new one because I want to ask specifically about the piston and cylinder and there is a lot of unrelated stuff in that thread.
Long story short, a few months ago I might have straight gassed (or ran bad gas) through my Stihl MS362 C-M and scored the piston. I caught it pretty quickly, so I don't think I did too much damage.
I finally got around to tearing the saw down. Pressure and Vacuum tested good. I wiped the cylinder out with a rag and wiped the piston off. No further clean up yet.
Do you guys think this cylinder is okay? I can post more after I try to remove the little bit of aluminum from the walls. I'm hoping I can clean up the cylinder and just get a new piston. The saw had 145psi compression before and after the cylinder was scored.
