Hi All, I was hoping that someone having experience in repairing B&S L Head Engines could provide on insight on my issue, before I decide to just scrap this engine for parts. I have a Husky Pressure Washer with a B&G L Head Engine. The Engine Model is the 10L902-0010. Pretty much a standard B&L L Head Engine. The cylinder is low on compression, around 80psi. It runs very, very rough......not to the point that it stalls, but very poorly. Changed plugs and still did not resolve. Background Info - Purchased for $25 at a local online swap sale. Ran ok for about 5 min, discovered it needed a new pump. Purchased for around $70. Purchased new carb (kit w/ diaphragm and all), new air filter, sparkplug, and fresh engine oil. Started running funny, realized sparkplug hole was stripped. I definitely did not do this, so purchased another head on Ebay for $10. Inspected cylinder and seemed ok. No knicks or pitting. Piston looked ok with normal carbon buildup. Intake manifold looks ok. Did not disassemble, but no signs of cracking. The head gasket looked ok, but not sure how to tell if its 100% ok? Wondering if this is the main issue? I see they are very inexpensive, around $5 on Ebay. I'm definitely willing to take the risk for that amount. I don't have any sort of leakdown testers, so I won't be able to tell where the air is coming in at? I'm thinking its got to be sucking air somewhere. I don't mind taking the head off again if someone needs to see a picture of the head gasket. Any suggestions on where else the problem is? Or am I right and thinking the head gasket is not ok?

I have a GT200r String trimmer. I replaced the tank rubber grommet, gas lines, fuel filter and air breather. Took carb apart and cleaned and put in a new diaphragm. It starts right up on choke but dies as soon as I pull the throttle. just seems like it is not getting enough gas?? Any suggestion Thanks
