Hey guys - first timer here looking for some help.
I recently had an inspection and compression test done on the above boat. The three cylinders came back as: 130 psi, 130 psi, 110 psi.
Apparently the manual states 103 - 130 psi is within acceptable range. However, 110/130 is more than 10% and the fact that one is lower than the other two has me worried from reading around on this site.
The boat only has 18 hours on it, clean VIN history, apparently a decent maintenance record, and the inspection showed nothing else wrong. The boat is in fantastic shape according to the inspector.
What could be some of the possible issues here? Is there another test I could have run to identify the issue (leak down test? Cost?)?
Lastly, I'm going to go do a lake test run with it - then have another compression test done by the same inspector. He said it could simply need to be run a bit to bring the compression back up? Sound plausible?
