Compression Question????

You should pop a head....and have a look. Tim walked me thru this exact repair. Yes you can pull the reed block unbolt the rod and push the piston out. After doing that you can "de glaze" with a hone. I did this to one cyl that had a stuck ring (my fault) on my 225. Compression went from 80 back up to 120 where the rest were. Parts for the piston, rings, rod bearings etc was just over 200ish I think. Its a pretty basic motor. I dont think I would move it into the "parts motor" catagory without looking inside 1st.
