i took my dads shinny 377 apart today and found a c clip had come lose and embedded into piston wall and scratched 2 groves into the cylinder wall to the depth of bout half diameter .012" of the c clip .025".
freed the rings and cleaned the groves out.
piston groves are covered by the rings but that leaves the groves in the cylinder wall for compression escape.
all i need is a c clip to put it all back together. problem w/ that is i dont have one that small.
so question is recon it will run w/ the 2 groves in the cylinder walls? anyone ever tried this?
thanks & good day
