I have found by reading the posts on honing that there are definitely opinions on both sides of the issue. I have decided to give the muriatic acid scrub a try because it looks like the cylinders(old Jonsereds) that I have will clean up if I can get the aluminum out.
Both of the arguments seem convincing about cleaning out the aluminum and then either honing or not. I just want to see if it works for me.
I plan to go the scotchbrite route and then put the saw together with a new piston/ring. If this doesn't seem to do the trick(not enough compression/power), can I try the hone next? Basically, can I try it the first way and if I don't like it, try it the other way?
