turbodan

Hi all i need a bit of advice. Recently i unfortunately melted a piston in my fiesta turbo and when i took it apart tonight i found that the very tops of all the conrods have started to turn blue. This to me is worrying!! I dont want to put it back together to find that one has distorted. Should i bite the bullet and buy a new set of rods or can i get them checked in any way to make sure they are still true.
Good advice would be appreciated

as it had a set of new pistons fitted before?
when my new pistons were put on the conrods they had to be heat shrunk on
leaving a blue colour on the steel

You can get them chequed. and i would while there out. On a different engine where the gudgen pins are an interferance fit you have heat up the
rod to assemble / disasemble the pistons, and this can leave a slight blueing on the rods, and has been fine, in these circumstances, but i am not
familiure with your type of engine, so i would get them chequed, better to
be safe than sorry.

No these are the original pistons so maybe this is ok then! I will defo get them checked before they put my new pistons on them. Cheers
