Yeah, I know the timing mark is a bugger to find, I've
had to find it on the '47 A and my '45 BN. I usualy just
get on the compression stroke and then use a big
screw driver to move the flywheel. I just could not see it
on this '41, but then again I was getting tired. :)

I didn't think about a stuck ring, and I didn't check the
other cylinders (which I really should have). What I may
just do is fill the cyclinders with oil and let the whole
thing sit for a while. Then when spring comes around
have the head reworked, the block welded (yeah I
didn't mention the TWO cracks in the water jacket,
luckly there isn't any water in the oil. I did a temporary
fix with RTV, which BTW works quite well!), and go from
there. I might stick with this Fairbanks Mag, I have a
feeling an IH will cost a more then a few pennys.

Still would be nice if it ran, I mean it's a heck of a lot
eaier to drive then push...
