The head is off- the valves look ok, but I will let the machine shop- Engine Assembly in Rochester- be the judge. They all are leaking, but I thought they would be much worse. I was expecting damage from the first piston.
So far, I found the idler balance sprocket has wobble.
Both chains stretched
piston #1 is loose around the crank bearing, and looks like play at the piston end as well.
piston #2 may have very slight play.
If the machine shop gives this head its blessing, then it is still probably worth while to rebuild, provided I can find a cheap used piston.
Can I use any 2.3 piston?
Thanks,
Rob
