Well, I got my LE to start up once again. Ended up being fouled plugs. Replaced with new ones and it fired right up and ran great. Revved up no problems. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
Lot of white smoke coming out of the exhaust. I thought it might be unburnt fuel until I saw this: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.volksbraggin.com-10419-1288633589.1.jpg) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

Kinda read through all the posts, even the Sharting one.
If it were me, I'd do a proper warm up on the engine, drive it if you can. Those compression numbers aren't that bad at all and #4 that fell a little under 100psig might come up within spec after driving it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) As others have said, change the oil, make sure it's as good as can be. If it's been sitting, it's worse off then if it had been driven. |
