I have no clue - bought the boat 2 Fridays ago and this is what I got. I didn’t do a compression test - but the rig was not expensive at all. And I know it was a project - just didn’t expect the motor rebuild to be part of the project.
Understood - I’m a bit new to outboards - but very mechanically inclined. It’s just seems off that only 1 piston is shot - I mean shot. It’s loose in the cylinder walls and piston is crumbling at the top - so don’t know if the rest of the internals have damage due to metal most likely went into...
