I think I found my boat ; It's a 1986 hull very clean inside and
out with a nearly mint condition 1993 150 johnson h.p. Does anybody have any good (or bad) feed back on this outboard? it's a 'looper",or loop charged, not to familiar w/ that one. all responces are appreciated

thank you fillet for the reply, and thank BS for that link.Anybody know what those cylinder compression #'s should be?

I think 90 psi - Maybe someone else knows better then me.

Phester...I'm tryin' to get that comp# from iboats...will post if I can get it... ;)

Shicks...it's really BOTH...if all #s lower than spec then all cyls bad... ;)

I really don't think the pressure reading is the important thing. The difference between all the numbers is the biggie. They should should all be within about 10% of each other, whether it be 125 psi or 90 psi.

RAP, thank for checking out those comp. #'s It is really the last thing this deal hinges on.All else looks real good, solid transom,solid floors, everything works(gauges lights,ect.),even the windshield wiper works! nice trailer too.Keeping my fingers crossed...thanks again...phester out

Phester..Brother I'm glad for ya that everything's checkin' out, but if compression's not what it should be, then it can give you some BARGAINING power... ;) ;D

Good you're not waitin' on me though cause iboats won't let me on forum for some stoopid-a$$ reason... ::) ;D
