    Being from down under (you) I'm not into the litre thing, how many ounces is that about 8? If so you have internal issues, did you try a compression check since you didn't do the leak down test?
    Just FYI, you can probably find a new piston and ring set and head gasket, but valves are long gone unless you find someone up there with some on the shelf.


    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
    Joe Camel never does that.

    Advice is free, it's the application that costs.

    Well dang, must be time for a new engine if it's burning a qt. in 15 or so miles. There are a few threads on here about Tec. swap outs.

    Mine was smoking so bad I decided to try to find valves, may have a good used set but since there are 2 sizes of each valve I know I need a disassembly before any further progress.

    The engine has about 93 psi of compression.

    sure no problem let me know when you get it. Also if you need parts I do work on small engine and have access to parts the general public does not but tec parts are getting hard to find.

    I was looking for valve guides for another engine I am going to have rebuilt. And I will let you know when I get the leak down tool. Thanks.
