Hi guys.

Just to let you know i solved the problem. Basically i noticed when i pulled the starter cord it felt like there was compressionbut it was a little to easy to pull. I then decided to take thr spark plug off and move to tdc i noticed the piston looked dry. I stuck a rolled up piece of tissue in and pulled it out and it was dry and didnt smell of fuel. I thought there must be compression loss from somewhere. Next i put so petrol in the sparkplug hole and put the sparkplug back. Then i went to start and pull the cord. Just as i thought the petrol sprayed out as a mist from the side of the block where the piston gasket sits. I removed the gx200 gasket and placed the gx160 gasket back in. PROBLEM SOLVED :-) Engine runs like a dream now :-)
