I got the engine out and torn apart a few weeks ago. Turns out a combination of things happened. I had too much clearance between the apex seals and the rotors which caused blow by to get behind the corner seals and it burnt the rubber plugs out of some of the corner seals. Other than that, the engine is fine. I had the irons sent out yesterday for cleaning and I'm going to start collecting parts soon. The old girl should be back up and running for the spring with a fresh engine!
