Plot thickens.

P-60 piston after some cleanup.

I’ve found a chip and some gouges.
And the piston ring grooves look pretty carbonized.

After some rubbing with 400grit and red armor,
The scoring has gone down a bit.

Pin is really carbonized.

The jug has some cuts as well

Hard to tell from the pics, but the cylinder might clean up. Is the rest of the saw in decent shape? That piston is not looking to good.

Thank you sir.

The jug has some accompanying gouges where the piston has em.
Could probably be ground out with the squish?

Any good pistons out there?
Seems like the only complete set comes from lilredbarn.

I don't recommend any grinding in the cylinder. What's done is done. I don't have a link, but look up the Mastermind clean up method. It works great. The piston from little red barn will work ok. It will at least get you back up and running. Nos stuff is really hard to find these days for the Pioneer saws.
