" OK they just called me and after replacing the amplifier and coil and no improvment, they're now saying the compression is low and the motor is shot. A basket case. Junk.
My question is, the compression was fine a couple of hours ago and when the power loss occured, the motor was running like a million dollars - 5300 rpm. All of a sudden it was like somebody flipped a switch and the rmp dropped to 2300 rpm. No overheating or any other catistropic noises or events.....just a sudden drop in rpm, so how could the compression go from perfectly OK to low in all cylinders in the blink of an eye? I'm sure my oil/gas mixture was fine (I fill the onboard tank 6 gallons at a time, adding the coil with each 6 gallons just before pouring it in)
Do I need a second opinion. If by chance they're correct, what do you do with a motor that appears in almost brand new shape but has low compression? "
