this is toast, right

[Hexar]

Hi Guys,
got a weedeater, with a Husqvarna 32R engine, does not run, so I took apart the Walbro (with high/low setting screws ), cleaned it and put it back, still does not run, took the engine apart from the plastic "mount", and found the ring/piston are all like what is shown in the attached jpg.

This engine is pretty much toasted, right? And too bad, the walbro carb is different than my previous one, it does not come with a choke plate and handle, so I guess can not switch over...

Appears to have been straight gassed at some point.

Thanks Russ, you mean, someone run it without mixing oil? can it be salvaged? When I tried to pull start it, it seems there was not much compression - the resistance from the pull rope is not that much...

Anyone have any butter for the toast?

 

[Russ2251]

Not worth repairing.
Anything that normally comes in contact with oil is now suspect.

Sorry about lateness, before.

Scoring ~.020 deep, took most out with a brake hone, sanded piston a little to knock and sharp edges off. Filled molten aluminum out of the ring grove slapped on a ring, lubed it all up real good and put it back together.

After, might still be processing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kavx_XPCLZw
