Compression as follows....Cylinder 1 = 146 // 2 = 149 // 3 = 145 // 4 = 90 Also, engine will not achieve high RPM's, engine lopes and that tell tale sign of 'white' smoke is coming from the prop exhaust. These are all signs of a blown head gasket, BUT IS NO HEAD.....
Number 4 plug is washed...
Head gasket blown. I have worked on many outboards but not this specific make/model. Any insight on the level of difficulty would be much appreciated. My hope is that I can replace the gasket without removing the powerhead from the lower. Words of wisdom are needed:)
