Have briggs 20 hp opposed engine to fix for a friend , it had a bad crankcase oil leak you could see the oil running out while engine is running .
Had the crankcase apart put a new gasket in it , everything went back together fine . Now it has so much compression it hard to turn over, The old gasket you could see where a part had blown out .
The camshaft wasn't removed when gasket went it .
(a ) Is that because to compression had nowhere to release ?
( B ) Is the valve are out of setting...
