To make a long story short, this Recon was ran with no oil. Definitely needs a hone (if not an oversize), piston is toast and I’ll look at the valves tomorrow.
One thing I know about these Recons is there is no oil pressure light. I’m also having a devil of a time finding information about how to check the pressure on this. I saw a rincon I think but no Recon. Mine is a ’99.
With my engine in its current state, is there any way to make sure I’m getting oil pressure before I put it back together?
