So glad you showed the Conn Rod needle bearing. Mine fell out. I have all 31 but the holding material is gone. I'm just going to buy new piston assembly. Thanks for video. Hopefully I can get mine going again
What made you have to tear it down in the first place? I have a Snapper mower with a 2 cycle 5hp Tecumseh , tvs840 model engine, that after I hit something in the yard, started making a rapping sound and power seemed down, so I shut it off and it now won't start, just puffs some smoke thru the muffler which I've never seen before. :-(. Do you think it may be fixable?
The rod is bent from the sudden stop from hitting something more than likely , either that the oil pump broke & it starved from no oil & the smoking was from the rings & piston being called up & it siezed .

Was it a success? Im thinking of fixing a hsk845 with low compression from my spare engine pile
That old piston look pretty scored. What do you think caused it? It does look like straight gas or not enough oil? Old gas? Thanks, Cliff
