Well, with the points cleaned and set I pulled it over with the rope and got a good spark
So I delved in deeper...
Piston has some damage to the edge of the crown, and there is a lot of play in the little end (between the piston and gudgeon pin)
No major scoring on the bore
The head gasket was this homemade paper affair and not doing much, I would imagine that I will have to get one made unless I can lay my hands on some copper sheet and do it myself?
Is it worth (or even a good idea) to hone the bore if I re-use the same piston rings?
