<VV> No compression in #3 - One very good reason (of 6 so far) !

Try to find piston (of same type and correct size as the removed one along 
with cylinder of correct bore to match the piston size) WITH rod and pin 
already pressed on.  Your current cylinder is likely a core at this point.
Later, JR
