[QUOTE="sr522re, post: 429356, member: 15906"] Quick update: Just checked compression: 120 psi in both cylinders. Spark jumps 1/2" on both leads. Also, I primed the fuel line bulb yesterday till the carb bowl was full. Bulb became rock hard and no fuel passing through the primer solenoid. I checked this morning (24 hrs later) before compression test and fuel line bulb was still solid and bowl was full which is good. Process of elimination... I'm guessing a dirty path in the carburetor or a timing issue. I'm getting close, but need warmer weather to get it back in the water for more testing. [/QUOTE]
