    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    Yeah it started to spit water at 2k RPM in gear. At idle just a trickle so I put back the thermostat.

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    Ok I put it in gear revved the engine and water came up the tube. I have to put the thermostat back in and see if it still heats up.

    Read the 1992 manual inside and out. Mine is 1990 but it looks the same Nothing on the water pump issue.

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    Hello again so I cleaned and adjusted the floats on the carbs. The gas does not get sprayed out when I squeeze the prime bulb. The engines start I got idle, still have to adjust it all, the gear selector and the gas selector because they kind of interlock. I saw somewhere that the lower unit...

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    The black tip one is new. And it is an off the market cheap kit with seat and needle. The seat on the carb is in there good. Maybe heat and a reverse screw or something to take it off.

    The seat has no rubber on it. I took pics of the needless. One seems to be more grooved than the other and the silver one is off the market. Any thoughts on the off the market ones? I have a seat for it. I did adjust the floats as you mentioned. Waiting for the inner tube and caps that I removed.

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    I did that at some point. This engine had the beggining of a melted cylinder in number 2. So the carbs may have been running rich. The float was high not parallel on the top carb I have not opened the bottom yet. It doesn't showthe same things. The squeezeball looses its firmness so the high...

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    So I took the carb apart. In order to get the main nozzle unscrewed I had to remove the long tube #6 that was in the way. There seems to be a plug cap #5 at the end. I hammered it from the bottom out through the bowl. I did not see the cap but the tube was plugged up couldn't blow through it...

    Yeah it wasn't level, or parallel it was dropping down. Can this cause the idle issue?

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    You know I thought that. I adjusted the float because when I turned it upside down it was sitting down passed parallel so I bent it to keep it parallel. In the book it says it has to be parallel to the body on one end and almost touching the jet onthe other adjustment end. But the holes that...

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    So the hole inside the bowl and the one hole it leaks through are connected. I blew air through it. Any thoughts? Am I missing something?

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    No, I did 70 inlb. It's from lifting it with a jack like a moron. Hipefully this will fix that issue. When you put the impeller in the engine is twisted clock wise right? What say you on the carb?

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    As far as the heating issue well, I cracked the impeller housing guys. And it was new. I screwed it up. I will provide pictures. I reordered it. Wtf. I should have known better. And when I angled the engineit went in right away. I guess I always screw it up first then get it right. Oh well...

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    Yeah so I have the juicy updates on the 3 issues. The top carb is squarting fuel when primed. When I run the engine it doesn't do it. So idle below 2k rpm is not possible. I can keep it running if I put the remote forward and keep it at 2k or more. Sounds great untill the heat alarm goes off.

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    The pressure is fine muffs not the best kind. I will take down the drive and see if the plasticpiecesup there were cracked during the failed install. I did install it pretty easy when putting the engine at an angle but before that it was chaos hahaha. Lots of failed attempts with a jack. Who...

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    I did it was at around 140. Yeah, alarm doesn't go off right away it takes a few turns. I mean the motor starts and stops after 2-3 seconds sometimes 5-6. If I rev it up it stays running if at 2k or higher RPM, dies at idle or close to. But I will take out the lower drive again. When I mounted...

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    I will check again. But I think once it starts once the alarm goes off. Cannot remember if before cranking also, and just ignition on.

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    It is only the top one when I prime it. If I try to start it I did not see a leak. I will have to look for sure.

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    I did read that text before. I have to redo ot all from scratch. Timing at 28. Will check again. I have to also check the coils. Funny before rebuilding cyl 2 was at 0 compression but held idle at 2500. The top carb squarts a little gas through a side hole when I pump the gas to prime it. The...
