Motors back together, has CRAZY compression. Did a leak down test and it would just piss out air. It turns out the reed cage was leaking w/ brand new oem gasket. I made sure it was torqued properly but it still leaked. So I coated the gasket with gasket maker and that did the job. After it dropped 1 psi per minute 1/2. I can't hear it leaking and I sprayed entire motor with soapy water. It's definitely not the stator side seal. Maybe it'll go away once the engine is broken in? Ive yet to start it since I still have to tap carburetor and clean up exhaust. I hope my posts are interesting or maybe I'm just talking to myself. ![](/proxy.php?image=http%3A%2F%2Fi61.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fh69%2FBlaster0528%2FMobile%2520Uploads%2Fimage_zpsfnah3zly.jpeg&hash=b7ec1cc246b02110c965db5952532c7f)
