2003 blaster started running badly, fouling plugs quickly. i checked compression 120lb in 3 kicks 150 in 5 kicks.
i removed the stator to check for leaks, however i did find leaks in my reed block at the top, fixed it.
questions...there is tiny gaps at the top of reeds and reed block, i noticed they were flat until i tightened them was causing them to flair open. are they supposed to be perfectly flat against the reed block?
#2 i did a leak test, when i found the reed block leaking, i did spray down the stator side seal and did not see any bubbles, i had no leaks at exhaust side, never found any on engine case,
however, i have not check wet side of engine.
the leak test did loose 1lb from 7lb after a few minutes, however i dont know where its leaking...i assume now it has to be the oil side. since i have not tested it.
after leak down test, reinstalling coil and reinstalling carb and pipe. zero signs of life now, spark plug has spark, headlights brighten when kicked over. spark plug had minimal signs of wetness after pulled in 50-60 kicks.
removed tors. wired together. brake tors, i only removed wire to it by unplugging each end.
gas is fresh 32-1
