Those horizontal striations you mentioned look suspiciously like the rings being "welded" to the piston.
Yea I think the rings are welded to the piston..... they horizontal striations are on the inside of the cylinder. looks almost like a tool mark from the machining of the cylinder.
Just a thought... could I be not getting a spark??? I should probably check that.
