Default Re: my first post and problem

Welcome Doughboy,
Does it feel like a mechanical drag at a certian point or does it just feel like a slight compression build up?
The crankcase will build some pressure/vacume and have a resistance similar to but lower than compression when the piston goes down and back up. That's how it draws fuel into the motor.
If it is more than that, I would pull the exhaust and intake off the cyl. and peek at the piston for carbon or lean condition scoring. Topend kits are fairly cheap.
Keep us posted. Mitch
