Compression Test indicates 60 PSI. Is it time to scrap this critter?

No, many of these small engines have some sort of compression release.

60PSI is usually what I get on well used equipment.. seems when you get around 40 or less is when that causes issues

Valve adjustment, lap some valves in and maybe a new head gasket that is PROPERLY torqued? Might help you some depending on age and service neglect.
