I have a 1965 6hp seaking motor that i cant get started. This motor has plenty of spark but will not run . I even tried taking the plugs out and giving it a shot of eather straight into the cyclinders then replacing the plugs . I cant even as much as get a hit out of it. It has between 55lbs. and 60lbs. of compression, I was told it would not start with less than 90lbs. of compression. Is this true, and if not do I need to over haul this motor. If anyone has any suggestions to get me and my son back to fishing on the waters it would be greatly appericatied.
...Im back up and running again thank god ...Me and my son went out the same day and he caught his first stripper bass it was close to 4 lbs. wished everybody could have seen his face then...well thanks again willy for the input if I can help you in any way with any problems feel free to contact me ... thanks Charles.
