Rebuild Time!

Did a compression test on my motor and it gave me results of 15-15-15psi on the front rotor and 25-25-25psi on the rear...

It started easily... only about 5 seconds of cranking after it was sitting for a week. It idled at about 500-700rpm and would idle all day if I left it on... it would rev smoothly(no 3800rpm hesitation) but would kinda pop/sputter alittle once you let off the gas. On a side note, Felixwankel88, You are pretty much the reason I'm going to do my own rebuild instead of sending the engine out.... I may pm/email you with questions. Thanks for the list of parts/prices(this included other members too...that big long thread about rebuild parts).
