yeah oiled the inside, piston had an arrow so that was a no brainer, let it run in the driveway mutiple times before i even put it into gear the problem looks where the gap in the ring is atim thinking just finding a new top end and getting another piston/rod set and getting this thing back and running im going nuts we keep going to bolton but all i have to ride is my truck or my brothers quad
