Re: Sea King 1 HP midget won’t start

Garry- the pistons are orientated correctly. Rings moved freely. When I put the head back on, I spaced the ring openings at 180 degrees.
Jerry- will check and listen to the poppet valve to see if it’s bouncing up and down.
Mumbles – great video, will give it a try over the weekend when the funny thing called work doesn’t get in the way.
Is there a test for the lower bearing as well?
If the crank bearings are shot, is there anyone that knows of a competent machine shop that could replace/fix?
All great tips, keep them coming. I think by this weekend we will have this nailed down. The Tubs Pal mix and match should really narrow it down as well.
