    I opened my motor. Does this look ok?

    the tops of the pistons being black is from being a little too rich, and isn't unusual or a bad thing...now it they're white/green that means antifreeze in the cylinders, and lean usually looks like your pistons but has spots of aluminum piston showing through the carbon
