piston pins in ring land WG7

Have a WG7, pistons have no pins in the piston ring lands to keep the rings from rotating.Apears there never were any there.I find this unusual on a 2 cycle engine. has any one ever seen this?

Re: piston pins in ring land WG7

I have found a few motors where the piston ring pin had "floated" out of the top of the piston and thus were missing. Some had just receded out of the groove but were still in the pilot hole on the top of the piston.

Thanks for the reply. No pilot hole on top of either piston or remnant of any pins are present. strange animal I have here.
