I think I know the answer but hopefully I am wrong. I was installing new rings and found that 1 piston had a chunk missing from the wall (see pic). Is there any hope for this piston or is it dead.My guess is that it is trash but can I replace a single piston or do I have to replace all 4?

I have two used 1.7 P&C sets (different dish) in OK condition. I may have a couple of singles, but I'd have to check.
Shipping a whole set (from Canada) costs about $70 I think. |
