my cheap asian pistons and cylinders keep having drama...1st one piston was damaged and now they sent me the wrong one....upon talking to Jake, he said he can bore out 1.8 cylinders to meet my needs....I have 2 1.8 motors at home, one that is sitting on the floor begging to be taken apart....how can I confirm that the cylinders are factory??
thanks |

At the base of the cylinder where the fins are the smallest there should be two fins that don't go all the way around. The P/N should be where the fins aren't. Mine were so gummed up that I couldn't find the P/N at first. Apparently the existence of a P/N = OEM part.
