    cleaning pistons.

    dawn power disolver from the oven cleaner section works extremly well. it is very mild you do not even have to wear gloves with it. you just need to remove it after 10 minutes or it tends to turn alumimun black in color. i have used it to clean carbon out of gasser pcv systems on my cars...

    piston distruction

    you are dealing with some pretty cheap cast iron that does not weld well. you would need to slow heat the block to about 600 degrees then try o weld it must slow cool or it will crack on you. wes

    dylly that tells you right there that the rear sensor or its wiring is bad. wish i had that info first. not critizing (sp) that is why it is so important to give all the test info when looking for help on a problem. the front sensor most likely is good and does not have to be replaced. wes
