Hi all hope someone can shed some light on this.
I have stripped down my 4e-fte engine to find the piston in cylinder three melted on the inlet side towards the cam belt end the problem is that although the bore is not damaged as far as I can tell, on closer examination of the pistons they are not a match. Two of them are numbered 2 and two of them are numbered three.
As I understand it that would mean that the size three are over sized by 0.0010 is this something that can be done in certain circumstances to overcome a problem or has it been bodged .
I have only had the car six months but have been driving it ok with this set up until the meltdown.
Any Ideas plz.
Cheers Sam
