Stuck piston ring diagnostic help on H

[RufusTheDufus]

Thank you for the help with this. I don't think I missed the point. There was never a stock turbo version of the 2H engine either but most of the aftermarket pistons available for that engine are the turbo type.

$AU660 for one piston and a set of rings is a bit rich for me. I'd hate to see how much a whole set would cost.

I thought that also and as I said we get shafted with prices up here but the shops sure know their trade or else they are not open for long. This is just general information I have passed on for everyone as here rebuilding diesels is nothing out of the norm. Just like the blokes here
who get 12HT squirters fitted yet I have not heard anyone from Europe, or the Americas talk about a shop that does it. I get the impression most are unaware that it is done.

Trade on a full 12HT rebuild kit (excl bolts and lifters) near AUD$1000

that aint even near expensive, here single piston (without rings afaik) costs around 600e for 12ht from toyo dealer (which is about 900aud)... But good alternative for them is to find mercedes piston near the size of toyo pistons and fit them, since they have steel insert in them and thicker top ring...
