Zero dollar fix for scored piston cylinder hi guys.
Abrasion is a type of light scoring that could be caused by dust and dirt entering the engine through a faulty or badly serviced air cleaner.

It also seemed to idle okay and had.
Deep scoring in a cylinder can be the result of a mechanical failure such as a broken piston ring a broken circlip or a loose piston pin.
Or should i just do a light ball hone and install the piston anyway.
