Piston damage found....

angelobMember

Well, I figured since the engine and trans assy is out while I am working on other items I figured 'while I was at it', I might as well tear down the engine and freshen up things. I found the 2 front pistons with the damage shown. Guess I should consider myself lucky I caught this now before things came apart on the road. Interesting the scuffing is just under the oil ring on both pistons and not on the lower skirt. Looks like oil starvation up front or contamination?

Guess I'm going for new pistons.
