Here's the latest, although not much. I turned the engine over and water again shot out of the #2 cylinder, but none of the others.

I went ahead and relashed the driver side cylinders making sure I did intake valve when the exhaust valve was opening, and the exhaust valve as the intake was closing.

Did compression test on #5,6,7,8 and all read about 130 - which seems low but at least did show compression and consistency in readings. It also confirmed I had lashed the valves too tightly and they were being held open on the prior compression tests.

That's about it except I have emailed Keith Craft and unless he comes up with something, will likely pull the engine and take PatBuckley's advice.
