Honed engine need help

[Toro recycler 22]

I just got done honing my engine. Below are pics, and I bought a used stock piston with rings. I know I need bigger rings 0.010. Not sure if the piston gap at the top is an issue. I have a video.

If you guys think the piston is good, and just need bigger rings are these the ones I need? https://www.ebay.com/itm/334560738153?epid=1701627619&hash=item4de55fbb69:g:Ez8AAOSwaMhZ2jW7&amdata=enc:AQAHAAAAwDDhhGY6uWTqQKAelzSPv2Exf84N8UZSs68LcO0xyXCQXrC97P1M3Gg3hDZ+xBK8pohLLNwqofD6K85MYdGKJsMW2AAzuR95RVngl2l0dTYMZZWQ+RVA2t4SnV/U0YPM1ehjuS11at3LrCVxQ4MMXFIsINOpbdW45ViIA1AwUl1FjsFpJH5P3zsd/eMXPf2eYXePMqUrfkNgK+SrU4QnsWSy0gdlDHpprviKajCVdTZfey9R5szQ9b8c2UrbV3B1qg==|tkp:Bk9SR8jbppXnYA&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&campid=5338801928&toolid=10001&customid=130832X1655003Xcc148d87198870ceb2ac5cf3902d0da6

if you need bigger rings, you need a bigger piston as well.
do you have the engine model number?
to my eye, the gap between the piston and bore looks too large, for even a .010 piston and rings to fix.
How long did you hone the cylinder?

Ok. ENGINE-TECUMSEH, LV195EA-362003B. Had somebody tell me it's tapered too bad to fix. Thinking about looking at a junk yard for another engine. I bought all the parts to fix this one. So if I get one that the cylinder is good I should have a working engine.

To me that piston will never work in that cylinder, piston is too small for the cylinder. Second, the honing you did is way too rough, rings won’t last long. If it were me I’d cut my losses and look for a complete new engine.

He probably flexed hone it and just made everything worst.

No, that was all from the honing tool with the 3 sandpaper stones. It didn't look like that till yesterday. For some reason as I was honing the tool kept getting tighter in the cylinder, but the gouges were so deep. Got them out, and figured it wouldn't be as bad as it was. Oh well lesson learned.

In order properly hone a cylinder you need a ridge hone as any spring loaded hone just make tapering and ovaling worst. You also need mic the cylinder to know the actual diameter and compare this the engine's specs.

I agree with you. You may be able to bore the cylinder, but it looks like it is too badly worn to be bored.
