The cylinders are surprisingly nice. After i took the head off I cleaned up the cylinder walls and the pistons. Then I sprayed PB pipe blaster on top and in a couple days it loosened up. the only thing keeping the pistons from moving was a small patch of carbon build up or something on the wall it was the size of a quarter.

Anybody have any suggestions for Carb rebuild kits if necessary?
