force with water in cylinder i think

[b0mbtrack]

force, 90hp. 2 cyl. the lower cylinder isn't really firing all that great and when i pull the plug it has water specles on it. but what i'm confused about is that it had good compression. is that possible?

About 2-3 weeks ago I made a post about good comp and having a blown head gasket.
I had 150# all 3 cyl but it ran like crap, missing and no power.
I checked it again and again. Still water and not running.It ran good the trip before so I thought no spark.NOT!
It was the head gasket.I replaced and no problem.Jerry

I changed the head gasket but am still getting water in that lower cylinder, any idea?

Exhaust plate gaskets could be leaking. When they leak, water collects in the bottom of the exhaust chamber and spills over into the bottom cylinder through the exhaust ports.
