Thanks for some more good info--I'll be checking out the reed valves too. I also noticed something yesterday that I forgot to mention. With the spark plug removed and pulling slowly on the starter rope, I feel some strange (intermittent) resistance and roughness of some sort--maybe from the crank end? It's hard to tell but I plan to checkout another of our XL12's to see if this is normal. The sensation almost feels similar to turning a wheel on a spindle when it has a flat spot on a bearing or maybe a dry bearing?? BTW, I removed the muffler and the bore looks nice and smooth with no scoring.
