Mercruiser 3.0L compression

[mcski]

I'm looking at buying a 4cyl 1998 Bayliner Capri with a Mercruiser 3.0L.

The compression numbers we got were:
1) 130
2) 130
3) 130
4) 120

These numbers look in line with the other threads I've seen as target psi, but just wanted to reality check and ask how concerned I should be about the 120?

Thx

dont even bother .......at 120 it`s in the range ....

10 psi aint much on 130 ....

genral rule : it has to be wihin 85 %
