    A six hp OMC is maybe the best-running outboard engine ever built. Don’t waste your time pulling. If you keep pulling like that, you’ll be having to fix the recoil, too. How many times did people bring us an engine to fix the recoil, when the original problem was, it started poorly or not at all….65 psi compression seems a bit low but I am not entirely sure what it should be. Hopefully somebody here does know.

    Long live American manufacturing!
