Hi I have a honda GV-150 that has to much compression it has so much that my go kart gets air when i pull the pull starter so know i am using a power drill to start it but even that struggles to do it So how do i get rid of some of the compression without loosing to much power???
Thankyou

Have you had the engine apart?

Yes me and hargreaves334 are mates, and he has had it apart, but it still runs fine, i sujested to him that there could be too much oil and it compreses on the way down

Did you check the timming marks when you put it back together?

Regards,
Bruce

i wasn't there when he timed it, but i had a look before it was put back together and i couldnt see them, but he sais that he timed it properly, as i said it still runs good.
