Ofter repinching my trx 2.5r with a tor h and hose clamp one side of my piston and sleeve is black, is this because of unequal pressure? I did manage 5 tanks of performance now it keeps overheating at 45 degrees f outside at 7 turns out on the hsn, i have a new p/s and a new engine, but i want to use this one until the bearings fail, does this look like a reason to overheat and bog at 7 turns out hsn and stock lsn settings? Thanks in advance

You probably made your sleeve out of round and now are getting blow by. There are special press tools made for that. The "clamp" ones don't do a good job at all.
