Lanse, I am really gald to see a young guy trying to learn how to rebuild an engine. However, from your questions/answers/current problems you really do need some help. You will probably have to start over on the whole engine, after reading and studying a Repair Manual for your engine. You will also need a decent set of tools. Is there no one near you that can coach you through this. I am afraid, the way you are going at this, that you will wind up with a trashed engine, and get very discouraged about your first lessons learned. And by the way, the ridge is not one the piston, it is inside the sleeve. Tell us the tools you have, what parts you have purchased so far, how it ran before teardown, etc. Just trying to buy one piston at a time is not going to give you a real workable engine. You need to assess (with some help) what is worn out, what to buy, etc. Keep trying, but slow up a bit and try to understand what you are doing before breaking things up too bad. Good luck Lanse, hope someday you are an ace mechanic. If you live near me, I would come to help you. Tom

To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
