Well last night in the darkness i observed a few things. while cranking, i do have sparks from the plugs in all 4 cylinders but only when the timing base is in one particulat "sweet spot". i do have a new power pack. I did observe a big spark also :confused: underneath the fly wheel (forward...

Question #1: does a compression check tell you anything about crank shaft seals or crank case seals. my outboard has minor fire damage (thanks to arson). the heat does not seem to have been too severe. the cowling is fried. the oil injection pump melted and electric fuel primer is scorched a few...
