Re: Damaged piston

As long as the ring grooves or glands are not damaged it should be fine.I would run a groove cleaner around the grooves especially the top one and that should clean it up to where the ring is free.I have torn engines down that run fine and have had more damage than the picture you are showing.If it were mine a good cleaning and reinstall.
