Hi, My 1969 Merc (80Hp) has a compression of about 45 at the top piston and 125-135 on the bottom three. Is there anything I can try before I attempt to replace the rings/piston? I just purchased the motor and have not yet started it. The previous owner says that it ran fine, but he did have some difficulty starting it.
