Ok so I am down recovering from hip surgery and decide now is a good time to do the 365 to 372 mod on. my Husky. So I go at it and eventually gets the cylinder off only to find the lower ring was broken. I have so many questions.
did I do this getting the cylinder off? I had it off and had to slide it back on when I heard a ping. I was not shoving and banging it back on. Are rings that delicate?
could it have run with a broken ring?
the rings are really loose, are they supposed to be that loose?
it looks like there is a very slight score in the cylinder head (last picture). It is just barley detectable with a finger nail. The piston does not look damage in any way.
do I need to replace the cylinder head?
can I just put new rings on?
is there a good tutorial somewhere on how to replace rings?
