Wasn't hard to tune until the last 15 mins or so of my last outing. Still ran fine when you were on the throttle but when I stopped it idled normal for about 5 secs then slowly started bogging down until it diedNo, excessive blow-by.
The ring and piston is toast.
I bet you went through hell trying to tune it and was running gurggly a lot.
How are the walls of the cylinder head?
Shiny or dull? Does it have the cross hatch, scuffs?
Can you take a few better pictures? Set it on macro and take them under a lamp, no flash.
On most cases the bottom end is safe, its the top end who suffers. Try to remove the wrist pin. When attempting to remove the clip do so inside a large plastic bag or in the bathtub. They usually go out flying and it will save you time and frustration looking for the clip.
Congratulations on tearing up the engine.
one thing I noticed is the carbon trail in the transfer ports. This usually is a sign of running to high octane. I will try & explain. these engines have little stroke & high rpm. so what happens at high rpm is when the piston is at tdc & starts downward in it's stroke the fuel is burning and expanding to slow(high octane) & is still burning when the transfer & exhaust port open and ignite the incoming fuel. this is why the piston is scorched on the transfer ports side. speed secret here if you grind a flat spot on top of the piston about the size of a dime and run white gas(very low octane) you will gain rpm.
Check out this how to.sorry I can't seem to get the pics to work; can someone tell me how to get pics from my pc to post. I can't remember how I did it last time.
