Location: Plainfield IL		They will probably check the following. There will be other checks depending if the motor is 2 or 4 stroke and whether or not it is a carb, efi or dfi motor.


1. Compression test
2. Pull the lower unit oil and look for milky colored oil, i.e. water in lower unit
3. Spin the prop shaft to be sure it's not bent i.e. uneven wobbly spin
4. Look at the condition of the prop/skeg (i.e. bent)
