    I applied three layers of paint and bolted over the paint.. So now it’s all coming together. yes i was standing in water with it in the test bucket.
    Runs great and idles smooth in the bucket.. like crap in the lake, like one piston decides to fire late.
    I had no problems before i switched the cylinder plates.. Plugs and boots are correct and good condition! Gotta be the paint i guess!
    I’m going to have to remove paint or ground out another way I guess, still learning a a lot about small engines and grounding, the hard way!
