Reply To: Another new guy question

Point well taken. I understand what your saying. It’s always good to get another perspective. I am VERY new to this hobby and enjoy it, just enjoy fixing something old and seeing it used for it’s original purpose again. Being very new and realizing the internal parts are the hardest to come by, my first test from here on out will be compression. If I learned this in a matter of a month or so, I would think this guy knew the same thing and had checked the compression on the johnsons and could have said compression is pretty low and may be better parts motors than runners being how parts are scarce. But maybe he didn’t check. It’s all good. As I said we learn as we go for sure

It's a jungle out there.
