[QUOTE="RM250Rida, post: 144535, member: 23268"] Is a scoth brite the same thing as like a Brillo or SOS pad? I got a box full of them that I use for cleaning the plastic and oil on the swing arm when it flys off the chain. I cleaned all the carbon of the piston with Dexron III and Brillo pad. It looks pretty good. Don't see any MAJOR scratches at all and there's no scuff marks. There is a few tiny scratches here and there. I was hoping to clean the carbon off and find the piston numbers so I could order the ring but didn't see any writing at all. I know Pro X makes fractional increases for the NiKaSil and I don;t know which one to get. Im sure the previous owenr will probablly know if I call him but hes out of town. Only thing I saw was an R on the ring and it was face up. Would the carbon build up be due to too rich of a jetting? I mix at about 40:1 (12oz. to 5 gallons gas).Im pretty sure the spark plugs probablly a part of the problem. I think thats why I was hearing knocks because it wasn't firing every now and then. It is pretty dirty looking so Ill try a new one then do plug chops until I get coffee brown on all three jets. [/QUOTE]
