    Now, this engine has been sitting for a long time, but it seems that
    it emits excessive amounts of water in the exhaust. I have not run a
    compression or leakdown test yet, but would welcome suggestions on
    what to do next. Other info is that it did not pass emissions
    testing in OR.<br>
