Chrysler 135hp minus compression #4

[APJ]

Hey,<br />I have a Chrysler 135 outboard (which I have yet to start).. testing the compression by cranking by spanner with the plugs out/finger in.. indicates a good push/pull on pots 1,2&3 but bugger all on the 4th piston.. what's the chances it's just a gasket? would rings cause this on an outboard typically? Hole in the piston top? just fishin for some common causes and maybe better checks to do before(in place of) stripping her down..<br />Never know, maybe it's a common complaint and easily fixed..<br />AJ

First your on the wrong forum,there is a Chrysler/Force section but::<br /> Speaking generically you could try a decarb<br />and a shot of oil.2 strokes react to oil the same as a 4 stroke.Assuming it has a head pull the head and look around.

APJ, take the head off and have a looksee. If it's a head gasket problem you can fix it right off.
