First choice, I have another one 15 that has compression. If that doesn't pan out I have an 85 hours that should run. I have a 135 that's pretty much intact, but it needs one piston.

I've owned five rides, but never had any apart, I can't tell the ring land damage from the first picture.  I have a complete 85 and a spare power head in storage if your interested.  I may go through my 115 on the toon over winter, runs ok, but would be nice to refresh/re ring.

Yeah they're interesting, the land appears fine it's just that the ring is missing from the grove, apparently broke and went out through the ports. Block is toast

Funny thing about it is, I knew it was only idling on three cylinders but once I got it on plane it seemed OK, Labor Day we were at the cabin and I actually pulled Jake skiing behind it while it was only three cylinders.
Thanks for the offer Doug, but I think that groove is deeper than .030, and Mike thanks for the offer for the powerhead, I do still have a complete 85 that has good Comp. And a complete 135 that has a scored piston, but I am sure the cylinder is good based on Comp readings and how well it runs on muffs.
Not to mention three 135 powerheads and now a 115 that are all have one cylinder bad, I suspect I could salvage at least one or two of those blocks just never got around to tearing them down

It's a little comforting to know that it's not just TOP's that loose holes. :)
