Bought a lot of used outboards never tested the compression on any of them, including a 2018 5 Hp 4 stroke bought Sunday. I go by condition how it starts and runs
if looks questionable I walk away. Any good outboard priced right is a buy in this market.
A lot of our waters on the Kenai Penisula here in Alaska have gone to 4 stroke or if 2 stroke direct fuel injection only.
