A boat I'm seriously considering is running a 180hp Lycoming. The owner doesn't know how many hours or its history. I pretty much know what to look for but could use some advise and specs for the engine:
What is the min/max oil pressure on a fully warmed up engine?
Head temp, EGT, oil temp....?
RPM drop when shutting down one mag?
Owner says it doesn't leak or blow oil, uses Aeroshell low-ash 50wt, and runs 100LL fuel.
It's hard to tell from a picture, but 10 minutes with some instruments should help tremendiously.
