I managed to remove the piston from the conrod. I inspected the rest of the parts closer and realized they (LHS) scarred up the head button pretty good. The part of the button that sits inside the motor is okay but the shim is damaged. And well, the gouges in the outter rim looks like it will not effect anything. What the heck is up with that? i was able to remove the head/button without putting gouges in it. I don't understand how this shop is in business and I am going to file a complaint with the BBB.

Thanks for listening.
