Gents,
Today I checked the compression of my top cylinder and found out some bad news... I was getting an output of 30psi, compared to the other two cyinders putting out about 130psi. I scoped out the inside of the bad cylinder and discovered that the piston is dimpled on the sides pretty bad. Long story short, I am about to replace the piston myself. I just want to know if anyone could point me to a good site that shows a step-by-step process of how to do something like this. I have a manual here, but I want to get as much info as I can before starting. Thanks!
