 20 hp loss compression
Hunted saturday and my go devil ran like a dream. Sunday I launched and it wouldnt start. Got it started for like 2 min and died and never started again. Normally the compression is so hard that if u pull in the wrong spot it will rip ur arm off. Sunday I could pull and pull with no kick back. Anything I should check first thats easy before I completely rebuild the engine?

 Re: 20 hp loss compression
Check the valves sounds like rockers they just need adjusting.

 Re: 20 hp loss compression
I figured I might have broke a valve spring or something. Gonna check it out

 Re: 20 hp loss compression
Found out a pushrod had come off the rocker arm. What could be the causes of this? Does it just happen some time?

 Re: 20 hp loss compression
Loose rocker studs will cause it...not sure what else.
