Recently looked at a top end where only one part of the piston scored the cylinder.
It was in line with the top ring end gap.
Installed another to end and same symptom.
Ideas ?
Guy said it shut off while running full throttle but did start back up. Just rattles now.
Ring end gap is about 18 thou.
I'm thinking either cooling as in the lower cylinder drains aren't allowing any flow out of the cylinders creating a hot spot. It did warm up very quick and felt almost hot on each cylinder after 30 seconds of running.
