    It gets extremely hot and then shuts down. It won’t restart until it cools. It doesn’t seize so it could be low compression, but I seem to remember that compression seemed ok. Of course, it’s hard to tell with the hand crank starter. It maintains spark whether hot or cold. The carb is (was) clean and adjusted for good high speed and idle on the water.
