In me boating experience I've owned old two stroke engines and 2007 and newer fourstrokes. This weekend i'm going to look at a older Silver Streak welded aluminum runabout with a 2001 Yamaha Four Stroke 115hp main engine. I have no experience with older four strokes but have heard many stories of people being warry of them and of course when a fourstroke engine needs work it will cost a lot more then a two stroke. What should i be looking for in an older engine? obviously compression is the first place to start plus leg and engine oil. Any other advice?
