Just did a rebuild on a 08 D7 and can see some light scoring on the sides of the pistons. Really stumped on the cause of this. I have only put 50 miles on the sled. Things were well oiled when it was put together, oil pump was bleed and richened up, and oil was added to the fuel. Just was breaking it in, so never even hit full throttle and always keep an eye on the temp gauge. Sled was always brought to temp before riding. The pistons i replaced also had the same light scoring on them, but being the 3rd owner, i figured that someone had let it get hot and they squeaked a little. I didnt measure piston clearance or ring gap, which i should have, just figured OEM pistons, shouldnt be a problem and its not like I really got a choice on size. Anyone experience this, or have an idea for the cause? Thanks
