Hello. Haven't posted in awhile as I've been deployed. I've had issues with this engine awhile back, but finally had it going perfectly for awhile before I went on my desert camping trip for nine months. Drained the fuel and fogged the engine before I left. When I got back, she ran like a top the first two times I took her out, though by the end of the second trip she was starting to have issues restarting. Not bad, just had to crank a bit more than normal. Now she's at the point where she fires right up on the earmuffs, but won't fire if the motor is submerged.
I haven't checked spark yet. I did run comp numbers and I'm at 112, 110, and 120 on cylinders 1, 2, and 3. I'm going out right now to buy some long leads to build a spark tester. I think my comp numbers are low though. I'll have to look up the thread from when I changed the head gasket awhile back. I think I was closer to 150 back then. Maybe I need rings.
Anyways, if any of this sounds familiar to you, I'd appreciate your insight.
