    Leak down check questions?

    New to the outboards, gonna purchase a 280 merc next weekend, compression was ran and told around 150. How important is a leakdown check on these engines.
    engine will be going on a new stv euro from full throttle powerboats.
    what is a good all around prop and where to buy them from?
    please help!

    WELCOME TO SCREAM AND FLY !

    IMO 8% or less is a healty leakdown # for a top pinned piston.
