I took the head off today and it looks to be in good shape. I wiped down and cleaned everything and put it back together because it seemed like the head bolts wern't very tight when I took it apart. The comp. went up to 95lbs. So I took it for a spin and it ran alot better and gained more speed an RPM. When I got back I did a comp. test and it went back down to 75-80lbs. Should I replace the head, reed, gaskets and crank seals? What about the lower cyl. gasket or is that unlikely?
