Ah, spray that with a bit of WD40 and it'll be fine. Remember to let it soak in overnight.

2-strokes are rubbish, just find a big enough skip and haul the whole damn thing in there and walk away.

Its ok, I got another 4 engines!! ... needless to say I have got through a few already!! A new piston is ~£50. I can clean the rest up with a bit of time, emery cloth and a dremel type thing ... a and it'll be good to go  ... to be honest I probably won't repair it, I am trying to run down my stock of engines anyway!!
