I took the reed plate off. Two leaves on one of the reed valves were not seating properly. I could see light when I moved a light around the backside. Just a tiny sliver shown through in two places. My experience with reed valves is that when they are stuck open, bent or with debris, the motor will not start. Im skeptical that this is ultimately my problem, but it’s gonna get fixed.
