Never mind. I wanted to know the compression because I thought it might explain the hard morning start. I found the manual and it says<br />from 105 to 115 PSI. I have about 70.<br />FYI<br />The moter failed last Saturday. Sounded like I lost one cylinder. The reason was that the<br />throttle plate fell off the throttle shaft and<br />got sucked into the intake manifold. I retrieved<br />screw and plate by rotating the motor inseveral<br />axes and the parts fell out. Now it start just as lousy as before. Does anyone rebuild these<br />things? At what cost?<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Alving
