mike rousseau Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Well for anyone that cares... Or remembers my previous threads about issues I was having with my motor... While I was fixing problems with the work I was doing... Little did I know there was another problem developing... My head gasket went... This is part of the reason I was having such a hard time diagnosing all the issues... Because there was multiple problems... So in the end I took my motor to a mechanic and he found my compression was out of whack... And water in my oil.... So it should be the head gasket... Wich is a pricy fix... Good news is the mechanic is a friend of my brother and is putting a rush on it for me... I dropped it off Sunday and they were working on it Monday morning.... I'm hoping it's ready for the this weekend... Long weekend and I have to prefish for a tourney next weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike rousseau Posted May 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 It's a father/son operation... And I'm pretty sure the old man used to teach the small engine course at the college... And the son is a race car driver... So combined they know their stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
