The diagnostic was that 2 cylinders (1-3) were with no compression at all, so I was very worry about it. A complete overhaul after only 660 miles maybe painful but needed....
Finally after a long time, my friend took it apart yesterday and discovered that 2 exhaust valves were bent, for cylinders 1 and 3 and the push-rods are bent too. The rest of the engine is perfect.
The missing freeze plug is showing in the picture, and also the bad installation method in the others is evident too.

Still a lot of work! |
