I am looking to buy a 1987 88 hp e88mslcus johnson motor and for some reason the two top cylinders register 70 lbs of pressure of compression and the two lower cylinders register 115 lbs of pressure. Is this normal or does anyone know what the reason for this is. I did a wet test, poring oil in cylinders and no change.
Thanks
