I waring this last ten years to some people. "If you replace with original parts.. your trimmer or chainsaw will last longer"I was working at stihl dealer and it was great experience
I took the muffler off to look at the piston. I don't see a "ring" in the groove on the piston. Is that normal? Should I take it apart to inspect it closer?
The customer abandoned the machine after it was determined that the engine was destroyed. I fixed it because I needed some practice doing P&C exchanges and sold it as-is in running condition for the price of the parts and shipping.

where did you buy the piston and head ?
OEM Stihl
How much did you charge the customer to do all that? Might as well go out and buy a new one
