The jug is glued down with high temp silicone gasket goop as are the crank case parts. The timing disk on the pto is a bear to get off. The mount stand off is a convaluted thing. Is there a way to actually check/find leaks vs taking it all apart and re-sealing everyting? Could I put soapy water on the case and jug seams and put air pressure down the spark plug hole?? Make a plate to cover the exhaust or carb port and put the piston in the right sport then pressurize the case?
That will work just fine, blocking the exhaust and intake, it wont matter where the piston is.
