Valve retainer and/or rocker broke and the valve dropped into the cylinder. Looks like it destroyed the piston. Looking for a replacement Honda GX390, GX390UT2QNE2, in case we can't repair. Doubtful as it looks like the hole in the block for the valve is also destroyed but we haven't broken the block down yet to see exactly how much damage there is. Earliest I have found for a new replacement is "order now for June 10, 2023 delivery". Anyone have an old one sitting around to sell, or have an idea for a comparable engine that will fit?
Thanks.
