Hey everyone,
I recently bought a boat with a 77 Merc 70 HP and one cylinder has low compression. The other two are firing at 140 but this ones only at 40 psi. I'm about to pull it apart and see if its a ring or head gasket, but are there any tricks to putting it back together? Will i mess up the timing by pulling this piston or will I be able to pull it, replace what I need to, and put it back? Thanks for your help.
