Hello all, I am going to possibly buy a boat today and had a question about engine compression. the engine is a 97 Suzuki DT140. Any ideas what numbers would be good as far as compression readings from this engine? I'm still kinda new to outboards. Thanks for any info!

Well, run the compression test on each cylinder and the rule of thumb is that each cylinder should be within 10% of the others.....
