    Hi Crosbyman…thanks for the reply.

    He notices it after running it awhile on his canoe. Probably should put it in the barrel and use the soapy water…excellent suggestion!

    I am leaning towards the exhaust gasket. Head gasket maybe, but this thing idles down to nothing. I would think we would have issues running it with a head gasket leak. But you are right, compression numbers are easy to get and cant hurt.

    Thanks again!

    Steve.
