Pull the cylinder off and take some pics. Sounds like it might be a plating issue.Guantanamo Joe said:Thanks for the advice on that...Now, I am not even going to lie to you and tell you I know much about engines... so- I have now taken my carb and exhaust off this practically new engine and I am looking at it to see what I can find out... I turn it a few times and find that there are metal shavings inside the engine, under the piston- from where the plastic manifold was drilled in... the area from around the screw has flaked off and you can see piston damage (scratches) and metal shavings...
Have I found my possible issue??? If so, is this a warranty issue that I can put in for?
