[QUOTE="Ringo Steele, post: 255798, member: 6694"] Hi folks, I have a 15.5' semi-vee and am looking for a larger motor, since I just have a 5 hp at the moment. I have a line on both a 15 and an 18 hp Evinrude, from 1972 & 1973 respectively. The owner says the compression is in the 90's. Is this normal range for the compression? I would be looking newer, but the budget has me limited to about $600 right now, so no 4 strokes I guess! :roll: Anything I should look out for on these motors? They have had new impellers, carbs have been cleaned, other stuff replaced as necessary. [/QUOTE]
