You didn't mark them !
The piston and conrod fit a certain way in the block facing the front and thats what I meant so mark them front and 1 2 3 4, find out what size they are and get new rings and shells plus the center thrust's. To clean out the grooves break one piston ring from each of the three grooves and use the good end to remove the carbon. Check the top of the bore and see if there is a lip on it (black carbonised ring at the top)if this is large the block may need reboring. If not a glazebuster will do the trick ( yes I have one)!
Pop down on Wednesday and practice your reversing, I have reveresd artic's in to smaller spaces !!!!
