When pulled the jug found the problem!

Found that bent tip screw driver and a punch work well to get the flat springs out.. Then using your nail to press it back into place with the pin to give it a backing.

Ordered an adaptive honer tool. The bore wasn't that scratched So I gave it a nice cross pattern. The tool worked nice. Hooked it up to a drill and tapped the jug to the bench. I had never done this before yet it wasm't too difficult to figure out. Making sure to keep the spinning motion through out the jug, had heard a lot of people breaking the stones. I had no trouble with this by slowing down

Putting the piston back into the jug used the aircraft hose clamp method and it worked really well. The piston rings were in a sleeve showing the order and which sides to face them.. Took the old ring bits and put them in circles to make sure we had all the parts carfully covering the hole as took the jug on and off. Haunting throughts had me creating.
