yeah it is. So it deff a scrapped cylinder right?

 

With the information we have, yeah. You said it's not steam so it has to be oil. That being said ... an inspection will tell you for sure.

 

Well thanks man I really appreciate all the advice this site is extremely helpful.. Now if u guys only where my neighbor and could come give me a hand for some cash, beer and pizza lol

 

sing me up lol:d

 

Anytime come see me in Canada (Roadtrip lol )

 

I drove a buddy of mine up to Iowa a couple of years ago to pick up a bike. That's about the farthest north I'll go for now.

 

BUMMER So to do this myself any chance I can do it lol ??????? to re ring the piston I don't have to take the whole valvetrain apart right ??? I can take everything off and leave it together ???

 

First ... you'll need to pull the head to inspect the cylinder and piston top. You don't need to touch the valvetrain. Do you have something to drive besides the truck?

 

Yeah my wife has a 2001 grand am gt. Ok cool I have taken the TB off thats about it lol
