    Hmmmmm……We seem to be almost a full three pages into this and I don’t see the first sign of anyone asking if the engine has enough compression.
    Also see several posts on holding a plug against the head but no mention of checking for adequate spark the accepted way…….
    Usually Fleetwin and Frank are through all the basics by now when trying to help out.

    The guy I bought it from said the compression is "good" and the same on both cylinders.

    I just tested the spark on both plugs and they looked nice and blue.
