Scratched Block on CV-X

[NASCARnut]

After taking the sleeve out of the CV-X, I found a couple of scratches above the exaust port. They're not deep but I can feel them whenever I run my finger across them.

So, my question is, will this affect performance? and will I have to get a whole new mill?

Oh, since I'm here, what would cause the white plastic pieces on the side of the wrist pin to break?

Thanx

are the scatches on the sleeve or on the case?

either way if there isnt small pieces of metal hanging down kinda blocking the opening i think your fine.
if its small minor scratches on the case, you can prolly smooth them out with some #000 steel wool.
i wouldnt be concerned about it unless you noticed a performance drop.

Even if the scratches do affect performance, you wont need to buy a whole new mill(unless you want to). The beauty of the little 2 stroke engines is that you can rebuild them. It isn't all that difficult if you are fairly adept and patient.
