84 Par Car no start
 
Working on brother-in-law's Par Car. It has fuel to the carb and spark at the new plug. Has around 80lbs of compression. It wont even try to fire with a little carb cleaner right down the yapper. Is it time for rings and piston. I so where is the best place to source them from. Thanks

Over sized pistons hard to get right now but that sounds like it is crankshaft seals

80 psi is a bit low (should be 90+) but I would think that they engine would at least get you something at 80. New seals would probably do that cart well.

Those seals are very common. They were the same in all Columbia carts from 82 - 95. Do a net search for "82 Columbia crank seals" and you'll get a lot of hits. I see them on Ebay for $22 for both.
