I took our boat in for annual service. Mechanic preformed compression check. Poor compression was discovered. 85 psi in two, 100 psi in two, and 135 psi in four. Repair estimate is $3,750.00. <br /><br />I believe problem is due to motor overheating last spring. New impeller was installed, solved cooling problem. <br /><br />Motor ran fine all summer even with weak compression. Mechanic is telling me problem will only get worse. Would not address how fast problem will progress, only that the weak cylinders will eventually fail. <br /><br />If I cheap out, what are the odds of the motor lasting through the season?<br /><br />Thanks, <br /><br />James
