Hey do you know if it matters if the piston is removed and reinstalled and it will not mess anything up?

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

Do a compression test on it. It should have at least 65# compression to start and run ok. I have had a couple of these and both the piston and cylinder were worn out.

Glad to hear it runs! When do we get to see photos, or better yet,
a video of it running?
