Gif,

Checked all of the above all is correct.  I am wondering if maybe I got sold the wrong rings?  This is going to sound really dumb but I am out of ideas.  Every Comer 80 ring set I have seen new or used is bronze/brownish in color.  The rings I was sold and put in were silver in color?  Could the color difference be an indicator of the wrong rings?  I know it is a stretch.

 

Thanks

Garth

Gif,

you hit the nail on the head.  The base Gasket was wrong blocking the pulse into the block.   I went to my local Kart shop and asked for a base gasket for a comer 80 and put it in.  That blocks the pulse hole into the block.  Looked at the old one and the shape of the gasket is slightly Different allowing for the hole to be open.   In the future I guess I will just need to alter the gasket they sell me.

Thanks for all your help!
