I know there is a lot of conversations around this, but looking for another fresh thought before I pull the trigger.
I need a motor for RXP 255, 2010. Last one I bought was told it was good with only 30 hours on it - after putting it in, and on the water made a lot of noise - compression test revealed they were around 80psi, and one cylinder around 65 psi (SBT motor - yes I know they suck)
My friend at his shop has one exactly like mine (2010) with 120 - 130 hours on it, compression test revealed - 130, 128 and 121. Motor has been sitting since last summer, so I am thinking with fresh gas, and oil and a hot running motor things will expand and seal better. --- So I am thinking I am going to get it....
Just looking for fresh thoughts on this. --- Good Idea to pick it up? Motors are had to find and even new ones are hard to locate that aren't 4 grand. Thanks.A
