Engine would not idle. found no compression in second cylinder from top. Found water coming from exhaust. 3 plugs were wet(water). I replaced bad piston and rings and all new gaskets on exhaust and intake side of motor. Started up and still have water coming from exhaust. Shut down before I ruined new piston and rings. Am lost for cause. I inspected block thouroghly but did not magnaflux it. Origin is around second cylinder. Thought it was exhaust port gasket. Guess not. Anybody have any ideas?
