Default RE: OS40FX Peeling?

ORIGINAL: fungcc
Could someone enlighten me please

If "peeling" means an entire piece of nickel plating coming off the cylinder wall
while the engine is running, that should spell disaster.

The plated lining is hard....when the surface fails, the whole thing goes. It's
like the shingles or tiles on a roof in a hurricane. Once the integrity of the roof is
compromised, it's a goner. []
