Wow, yes, good point. I rebuilt the motor with new pistons, rings, had the head and block resurfaced ( only slightly was all that was needed) and new head gasket, so am not worried about water. I had a very hard time with new china made points getting them to match up. I had a pair of points made in turkey, and that is the top cylinder that i guess like you said, is most likely the one that IS firing. It was darkened some. I will replace the bottom cylinder points again because like you said, that is the one probably NOT firing. Thank you so much. I need a lesson in Common sense here! I am so greatful for all of the knowledge you all have here at AOMCI. My GC oil is all milky, so I am going to replace the prop seal and lower drive shaft seal. I drained some out, and its milky. I had put in new oil before i ran it, so, i am getting water into the GC. Thank you soo much, sincerely, john v
