[QUOTE="SF Flats Fisher, post: 418860, member: 13320"] Im not 100% sure the headgasket was blown, I was getting water intrusion on cylinder #1, so because of the easy replacement of the heagasket i just went and did it. Before headgasket replacement compression was 110/112. After it was 112/115. Exhaust cover gasket was the next place i checked for a water leak and the gasket did look blown out, so I believe thats where my water was coming from. Compression still sits around 112/115 (top/bottom respectively). Pumping the primer bulb at idle does nothing. Both coils and stator ohm out to spec and both coils will jump a 7/16 gap with a nice spark. This thing runs flawless at anything above 1/8th of throttle. It just doesnt want to idle worth a dang.
