Same suggestion I have suggested, you pull one piston and you ring
and put bearings in them all.

Thanks for the help Bill.

Is there an easy way to clean up this piston before I ring it?

Thanks,

Bill

Bill, can you get a picture of the cylinder itself so that we can see the
finish on it?

Hi Bill,
Nope, I just scrap the big stuff off. And use an old broken ring to
scrap out the groves, being careful not to gouge their sides. Chemicals
strong enough to remove carbon usually eat the aluminum.
