Taking a look inside my engine and I'm noticing that the Piston Ring does not look black like it does when you buy it new is this normal?20180421_095656.webp
 
Yes it will turn shiny from friction, which is normal. What I did notice is the piston looks pretty good too. You will see some scoring on the sides of the piston as you rotate the crank around. As long as the scores aren't super deep or excessively wide it is normal also.
