Re: Head gaskets and crank seals

Hi Stanley, what I forgot was to explain what was happening in side the motor. This applies I think to any alternate firing two cyl. outboard. If you have a poor seal at the crank between the two crankcase halves of the two cylinders the fuel charge is pushed back and forth past the center main instead of through the transfer ports to the top of the combustion chambers where in can be burned and or it is not being sucked out of the carb into the crankcase to begin with.
