Thanks Bill,
This engine is BRAND NEW. Never been run. I've been debating on sending it to Richard because of that but I'm going to check the valves beforehand. It's just unfortunate that I've never had it happen to me with a YS. It's frustrating!.... I to have been having an issue of getting the thing to turn over with my normal starter. It worked fine on the 160 but won't turn this motor over.
