    Low compression, high temp.

    Finally got things in order. I pulled the motor and definitely had bravoitis. New hose installed. Runs at 160 degrees now. It seems the low compression issue was stuck piston rings. I had the motor out for over a month. Addressed other minor problems. Painted the bilge and did a thorough...
