Mercury Outboard Compression Data
 
Can I get the recommended compression range for a mercury outboard
anywhere online without purchasing a manual?

Different gauges will read different numbers, and motor temperature has an
effect as well as throttle position. They key is that all cylinders should
be within 15 psi. I would expect your readings to be between 100 and 130.
