318 rebuild/overhaul kit

'Yes' on the compression test first and post pix of the splus set out in order. Find the obvious issues.

BTW, starting fluid is harsh on the cylinder walls; takes off the oil. I'd not use that any more; it's really just for very infrequent use if ever. Do you pump the pedal to the floor 2-3 times before a cold start? Sounds more like the choke system on the carb needs work; can't say if this is an electric or mechanical/thermal type.
