Hey guys,
I’ve read quite a bit on this, but I can’t find an exact thread to match my problem. I have two of the identical XP’s with the 787 motor. Both had the same problem of not turning over with the plugs in. One is now fixed with a new starter cleaning up the wires and new battery. The other one is still giving me issues. I now have the carbs off, exhaust off, and plugs out. When I roll it over with the starter a milky liquid that looks like oil and water is coming out of the rear intake hole. Is this engine full of water? I’m not sure there’s any other options. It looks like the rotary valve is pulling the liquid up from the bottom. This one also has a new starter, battery, and connections are clean.
