Got to tinker with the Motor.
For some damn reason it was missing the camshaft bolt that holds the cam gear in place.. Not a problem since they are a tapered fit and don't break their position very easily. Grabbed a bolt and washer I am satisfied. poured some oil in it. Cranked it over a couple times and yes, it does have compression. Of course the more I crank it the more compression builds up. Then I popped off the blow off valve and squirt ATF down all six ports. turn it over more. I cranked it backwards as not to hydro-lock the motor. then forwards oh man.. feels great. I'll crank it more tomorrow. Maybe some day soon I get a battery and some fresh fuel for it to burn. I would like to make a video of it running on the ground in my drive way.
