Piston slap
Just stripped the 600ss down and discoverd that the front or horizontal piston has sufferd a bit of piston slap. The machine marks that travel all around the piston have worn off on the topside. My querie is, what is the solution. Is it a case of rebore,new piston and rings. Or can you get away with new rings only?
