Honda BF75 1201782 low compression need valve settings

[dave12345]

Have a honda BF75. Ran great for a year. Sat for a year and now it won't start. It has low compression and I can't find anywhere what the valve setting should be? I would also like to know what year it is? I have found a great place to get parts at www.boats.net. Don't mean to discourage anyone from getting parts here since I don't know much about this site. Please help. Thanks

That did it! Starts right up on one pull again. Thanks a lot.
