Thanks I appreciate that.

They have 14K on them. I already bought the seals so I am going to give it a go. Thanks.

OK Thanks that is helpful.

Joel , Thanks for the reply. I should have mentioned I was working them submerged in transmission fluid had heavy resistance on the up pull but light on the down stroke I suppose they are junk. Do they need air to test properly?

The question is does the shock dampen in both direction or only on the upstroke, I can push the piston down easier then pulling up. I have them disassembled now. Any thoughts.

I had one that flooded the cylinders with fuel from the tank and just soaked the intake valves turning the carbon into goo that hardened the valves in position, I had to take off the intake manifolds, valve covers and pick out the goo while tapping the valve stem to coax the valves closed. A...

Cant complain, I microwaved some popcorn tonight..

I don't know what I'm doing

I would let it sit after a run for maybe 10 min. and pull the plugs, if you have a camera all the better, have a look inside the chamber and see if there is wetness, smell the plug for fuel smell, I am not sure if 1200 has a wasted spark ignition but my gut is telling me you have a cylinder...

Thanks for the advice, funny I forgot the cover had to come off I thought the water pump screws were on the frontside of the water pump, yes I will be rebuilding my pump if possible, might not come apart so easy , just bought the KP set from Japan.
