Next2nun,
This wasn't the typical knock that I would expect from a crossed or loose plug wire. Also I checked that I had them connected correctly. The sound was much more metalic than a knock and was very irregular. Since it was stalling and backfiring, I'm wondering if a reed broke and was sucked in. I only had the one head off so I don't know what the other side looks like but the compression is good all around.
I'll probably have it off this weekend and opened up mid next week. I'll let you know what i find. If it looks serious I'll look into getting a bare head. I know a complete rebuilt head runs aroung $3000. What should I expect for a bare one?
I may be jumping the gun but how do i check compression when the power head is sitting on my bench? Turn it over by hand?
Thanks
