Thanks to all for your help. (El Toro, thanks for pulling the photos up.)
I believe you found myanswer. I first checked the oil and it was at the "full" line.
As it appeared to be a gasket, I started looking again. The only one I had not replaced was the retaining bolt gasket, which happens to be brass and therefore never occurred to me. I picked up a new one this morning. Pulled off the cover and filter and removed the case gasket I just put in a month ago. I cleaned out the groove to be sure nothing was in there. I did have a new one so it went in.
Put everything back together with the new retaining bolt gasket and fired it up. (To answer JimN, I have 10-40 in it right now.) Right at the start the gauge read 40#, I let her run 15 minutes or so and pressure lowered to 30#. Started pushing back snow banks for another hour and the gauge was reading 20#. It never dropped lower than that.
My guess is that, with your help, I may have this problem resolved. Thanks.
I"ll have to let you know later on the electrical problem. I tried the meter I have across the battery terminals and could not get a good read. It never settled down. When I get a good check in the next day or so, I"ll re-post.
