Hi again ...well, after getting a good used set of pistons from a generous list member I removed my pistons from their rods. I notice that the piston/gudgeon pin bush in the rod is a 'brass' colour with remnants of white metal. Are these bushes originally white metal, i.e. same as rod bearings or were they a brass colour ? Is it a pretty simple matter of pushing the old out & renewing with new or am I going to have to ream the new bush ....etc..etc....is this really a job for a shop. No mention in Bentley of a procedure! Steve
