So yesterday I took a look at the 216 in the 37(supposedly it ran 2 years ago)it will turn over using a bar on the crank.The oil looks surprisingly clean, but not to clean. Took off the air cleaner and looked down the carb oh oh I see water down there. Now there is no water in the oil.And it will turn over so no cylinder full of water. How can there be water standing down there.
I know the next step is to pull plugs and check compression but how can water be standing down there???
Maby the intake is stuffed full of mice.
