Hi guys can I get some opinions on compression readings on a 94 150hp ocean pro 125on 5 cyls and 110-115 on one.I took the reading on the lower one a few times to be sure.Charlie

While the one cylinder is reading a lower compression,it is still within what is considered acceptible range.Maybe an engine decarb would bring it even closer to the other 5.

I'd do them all and let the readings fall where they may.I recommend using the OMC engine tuner and injecting it as per instructions into the schrader fitting of the primer solenoid.

It's the cap on the primer solenoids red lever.
