x2 - take the belt off and see if it's the same. If so pull the spark plugs and see if one is smashed - if so you found your blown piston... | |

| My guess is something spark or fuel related is keeping most of the cylinders from running. If it ran fine before putting away, its probably not a chucked piston, just something from sitting. Could have been a bit seized and bent some push-rods trying to get going again. Just needs a bit of a pull apart to see whats goin on. _________________ ![Warning!](https://2img.net/h/i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff27/karmag3/sig_riv-3.jpg) | |
