I have been offered a 79 Merc 90hp that "starts easy, has 142-149lbs compression in each of the 6 cyls. Comes with tilt and trim ss prop and 2 spare alum props. Also comes with extra trim motor. Guy wants $350. 2 Questions, one is, is the price in line? the other is, what should I look out for on this? as far as problems that I might be able to avoid? I know a used motor is exactly that a used motor. Just wondering if there are any other things I should look for before the purchase.<br /><br />Thanks
