Considering buying a used Yamaha 25hp four-stroke outboard

Going to look at a used Yamaha 25hp four-stroke outboard. Total hours are unknown - motor looks in decent physical condition but that's just that. It's a pull-start motor - what is the procedure for doing a compression test on a four-stroke outboard like this and what should acceptable readings be?

 
What ever you buy no matter what make or model 4 stroke you buy always get a oil pressure test done as well as compression tests and water flow .Save yourself headaches and money .
