Whats the cause of this?
« on: May 03, 2010, 09:02:14 pm »
I took the head off the Suwm today and found a film of unburnt oil covering the squish area. 
Any thoughts, does it matter?  I haven't have the head off for over a year so done a bit of work.

It's called a piston wash pattern. Stick to fibreglass Mick ;D ;D

What Lozza said, that is the pistons wash pattern.
What does the underside of the piston look like.
