[QUOTE="Jim Bush, post: 124050, member: 3807"] My engine definitely does not spin over anything like that Glenn. I am starting to think I have higher compression pistons or something else maybe hanging up the engine. The compression bumps are quite hard, can't kick through them. There is no "carry on" when I kick it, not so much either with the plugs out. I will get you to try next time we are out - buy you a few cold ones if you can replicate how you kick start yours, and a bottle of top shelf if you can arm start it.. [/QUOTE]

The Series 'A' Rapide was known as the '********' Nightmare?
