I believe this has been resolved now. Please use "Contact Us" form (see page footer link) if you still have email issues. SnoSheriff

    DO NOT just start ripping the motor apart assuming an issue and/or assuming that "rebuild" parts are readily available.

    -CHECK the valve clearances.

    -DO a compression test.

    Then and only then will you have any idea of how much "rebuilding" it needs.
