Re: Got caught in bonkers low tide, sucked mud, over heated, motor dead. Evinrude 88s
Noted. I suppose it's time I cut my teeth on Compression test. I'm on it!
Question: My motor cranks like a mad man when set to ALL, but, kinda wimpy on 1 battery (though starts nice and easy [BEFORE I blew it up, that is...]). Does it matter for the test!?
Compression testers are cheap ($20-$30) and it's easy to do now that you have means of turning the engine over (jumper-cables)
Once you know the compression results on each cylinder you'll have a clearer picture of the damage that may or may not have caused by over-heating the engine.
Buy one and use it if only for the piece of mind.
