270 sundeck 2006, mercruiser 6.2
Engines
Mercruiser 6.2 320HP, bravo III
Offer accepted and surveys complete. No major issues. Suggested needs manifolds, risers and pulleys. Cylinders read 130-155 psi. Anyone know of any other major potential concerns I should be aware of?
 
A few transom moisture readings would be good. Most recent tune up dates would be important to know.
And agree, more than a 10% difference in compression is concerning.
 
Is it a saltwater raw water cooled engine and bravo 3 drive? If so it's due for bravoittis.

So I received the oil analysis. Very high content of metals, iron, lead, sodium, aluminum. So the boat has not had service in two yrs and hadn’t been driven for a least 6 months. We my mechanic who surveyed said to have the owner change oil and filter and then run the boat for 7-10 hours and the well do another analysis. So well see
 
When the transom water tube corrodes shut causing engine overheating.
That doesn't sound very good. I just purchased my first boat a week ago. It's a 93 sundancer 270. I had it surveyed for moisture. And the previous owner had it recovered 2 years ago. It currently has 140hrs on the new 496mag.
