Low compression in one cylinder options

[my1423]

Pull the spark plug and put he bad cylinder on start of the power stroke and bar the engine so it can not turn over. intake compression power exhaust.
Take an air blow nozzle with a rubber tip and press it into the spark plug hole.
Push in air and see where it comes out.
If out through the breather or oil cap bad rings piston or bore or head gasket. A little there is normal. Should hold pressure for a few minutes.
If out through intake or exhaust then a valve.

Since I have 3 Motors I have decided I have enough Parts I will order a gasket kit before digging into the motor.

I will then order rings if that's truly what I need I will have to measure and see what block and pistons look like.

Well I ordered the gasket set so Looks like I will be tackling the repair myself. I can always back out if it gets to far along for me comfort wise. If its a vale I will pull the head and replace the head gasket after doing a valve Job.

If it goes deeper I will see if I can fix it not sure on bore gauge or if it has already been bored once or not I know cart was maintained but also it was ran everyday all day for years
So now I am into cart for $205.00
