Alvy, I thought of doing a leak down test, but figured it probably blew a head gasket. Would the cleaner cause it to break the rings from running to hot? That's what I thought had happened to the head gasket. It is an overhead valve engine. I do not know have to do some checking before I get to involved. Dad has a 14hp kohler horizontal engine sitting at his house. It may fit if needed. If it is rings I'm keeping quiet and not telling the wife about the gum out carb cleaner that's for dang sure! Lol
