Hello everyone! I am happy to say that I recently made an offer and had a prebuy inspection on a Cessna 172H (Continental 0-300 engine) that I am interested in buying. It does only have 600 hours SMOH, however the major concern is that it was last overhauled in 1983. The engine cylinder compressions are all very good, all in the 70's. The plane has been flown on a regular basis, just very little, obviously... (it hasn't been sitting around for years without being flown according to the logbooks). My concern is: if I buy this plane, am I going to be overhauling this engine soon because its been 30 years since its last major overhaul??
Thanks to anyone who can lend some advice!!
