    I did want to post a picture of engine with exhaust cover off. Where I have the pick sticking seemed partially clogged. It did look like maybe water was washing into that area possibly? When I re-assembled it is was still not running right I was hoping maybe water wasn’t exiting through that hole like it should. I did pull the spark plug it was wet looking I took a lighter and tried lighting it to see if it was fuel but it didn’t burn.

    Also the thermostat was all messed up it was loose in the head and just kinda floating around. When the guy dropped motor off he said it wasn’t circulating water near as-well as the one I had just sold them but when I started it it was circulating well but that thermostat could have been lodged sideways and maybe motor did overheat on him but motor paint doesn’t look burned or discolored.

    Thanks,
    Joe
