AnswerHello Dave:
From your Description it Sounds like a Valve Clearance or Valve Seat Problem. Did you Reseat the Valves? Did you have the Piston Out of the Jug/Cylinder? If Yes, Did you De-Glaze the Cylinder before Installing the Piston? Send me the Model and Type or Spec Numbers Off the Engine, Please. With these I can Locate the Proper Manual and Better Assist you. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem, I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.
Good Luck

John
