Hope you don't have the same problem I have. I pulled my hair out trying to find out what was going on with my motor. It was hard to start cold, wouldn't idle until it warmed up real good, would die when put in gear sometimes. I think I found my problem when I noticed a few drops of water on the #3 sparkplug. Pulled the head and found the head gasket had blown and water had been seeping into the cylinder for some time. Long enought o do some serious damage to the water-jacket side of the cylinder. Have cleaned it up real good and am filling in the missing bit of metal with JB Weld and ordering a new head gasket. Hopefully I can fix it. Don't just go pulling your heads though, I broke one and had to EZ it out. Was not fun and sure don't want to pull the other head to examine.
