My 582  greyhead is showing 80 psi compression on both cyl according to my new compression guage.  I think the recommended psi is 100.  The engine runs well and is strong.  Any suggestions on where else I need to check to see if there are problems.

Thanks

None, fly and have fun. 

  

 I had both the 503 and the 582 with well over 1,000 hours each  with no problems other than de-carboning & plug changes at about 150  hours. Used Pennzoil air-cooled oil.

  

 The 300 hour recommended overhaul is B.S. Started with Cuyunas  in '80 then went with Rotax in about '85 or whenever they first came out. Great  motor...the Rotax I mean.
