90 psi on FE290 what now?
I ordered and replaced all gaskets when my crank case was leaking. This included the head gasket. I torqued to 23 ftlbs in the correct order.
Now the compression is way low. Should I put in the old head gasket, or check valves, ... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Did you reset the Valve clearance? You have to set that after doing a head gasket. There can be difference in the thickness of the new gasket which will change the valve clearance and may make them not close all the way.
