[QUOTE="fakirone, post: 356054, member: 14476"] Okay, after carful thought and consideration over the last 24 hours, I have come to the conclusion that my water pump/impeller must have failed or some other failure causing my motor to over heat. The power head was EXTREMELY hot and there was smoke or steam coming from the top end when it quit. So did a compression check, bottom cylinder is kaput. Any of you guys think that this might be just a cylinder block gasket and or cover? Plug on the right is from the bottom cylinder [img]https://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d54/fakirone/photo1.jpg[/img] Top cylinder [img]https://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d54/fakirone/photo3.jpg[/img] Bottom cylinder [img]https://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d54/fakirone/photo2.jpg[/img] Any ideas as to where I should start? I have been searching online and here, but have been unable to find much info. [/QUOTE]
