Default Re: Head Gasket

Replaced head gasket and checked compression. It was good at 120lbs #1,3,5 and 125 2,4 ,6. Tried to start it and then the real trouble started. Hard starting and no idle AND infrequent but very noticable knocking noise as if there was metal hitting metal or something flying around in there I guess my season that never really started is over.

Right now I'm inclined to pull the power head, open it up and see what is going on. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks
