LOOK!!! ..is this bad?? (pic. inside)
I just recently blew my engine's head gasket and in the process of rebuilding it. It was a pain in the a$$ to scrape off the head gasket, but it eventually came off. I went ahead and check to see if the rings need to be replace and this what I found when I took the pistons out......
Here's what I'm worry about..... carbon buildup and the piston housing looks like it was scrape.. http://home.earthlink.net/~angelncmt/images/phosing.gif http://home.earthlink.net/~angelncmt...s/phosing1.gif This is bad, isn't it..???? http://home.earthlink.net/~angelncmt/images/piston.gif http://home.earthlink.net/~angelncmt/images/piston1.gif |

ouch.. what motor?

Re:LOOK!!! ..is this bad?? (pic. inside)
Looks like it's a b16. Yeah that looks like there was some friction in there with the cylinder and the piston....

Re:LOOK!!! ..is this bad?? (pic. inside)
nope its a d16a6, atleast thats what the name plate says.. ouch..
|
Re:LOOK!!! ..is this bad?? (pic. inside)
that looks rather unhealthy, looks like it's time for another d-series build up, I love engine builds, take pictures for us.

poor poor A6...a little bit of piston slap on those cold mornings ehhh. ;)
Did it make funny noises at all from that? |
Re:LOOK!!! ..is this bad?? (pic. inside)
looks like it got overheated to me...
And why is all the coolant gone around the sleeves? I see the drain bolt is still in? or was it already drained? B16? Y8? man, can you guys read? lol.. its an D16a6 |
Re:LOOK!!! ..is this bad?? (pic. inside)
It's a stock D16a6. The engine started with uneven compression about 1 1\2 years ago when I turbo charge it. I was lucky enough to have this engine last me this long while boosting 7-10lbs with a FMU.

I'm a newbie when it comes to engine internals, but couldn't you just hone out the sleeves and put over sized pistons in?
