Just picked up my boat from the mechanics today.  I was really worried about being taken for a ride as it was an ignition problem that I couldn't locate using resistance checks, and neither could they.  Anyway two power packs, a new impeller and lower unit service later and I'm back on the water.  They dynoed the engine, compression checks and everything was with in specs.  I don't recall the torque numbers from the dyno, but the compression came out to be 95 on one 92 on two and a drop to 81 on one.  I questioned the mechanic who worked on the boat and he said it was within specs and nothing to really worry about.  So all in all I'm happy, I felt pretty good considering the engine is a 1987 model, still runs strong.
