Hi everyone! I have looked all over for an answer to my question so I figured I would turn to the pros.
I have a 1994 yamaha 30 3 cylinder (mlhs) pullstart only. I bought this motor after I sold my electric start mercury and gosh is this thing hard to pull start.
the compression is 140 on all 3 cylinders. I can remove all 3 spark plugs and it pulls over smooth. as I put all the plugs back in I'm hit with a wall of compression. removed the pull rope and it works freely. can put motor in neutral and the prop spins freely also. am I over looking something? my last yamaha 30 pullstart was no where near this hard to pull start.
