Piston Damage

Piston damage can occur from malfunction, irregularities or excessive loads of a thermal or mechanical nature.

The process of assessing piston damage is similar to a medical assessment in that it requires an all-encompassing approach to identify the cause(s) of a problem, which may not always be clear and obvious. It is not at all a rare occurrence for repairs to be carried out and then for the same damage to occur again and the same components to fail again because, although the damaged parts were replaced, nothing was done to eliminate the cause of the problem.
