Just put some new spark plugs in it and run it. If you have been running that much Seafoam and Stabil in it your carbs should be clean. I think I remember you recently changing the water pump impellor so it does not need that and you can change the oil in the foot yourself, very easy....two plugs.....Remove them and drain the oil....then put the oil in the bottom hole until it comes out the top hole, put bottom plug back in then put top plug back in. If you get a quart bottle of outboard gear oil and one of those pumps its really easy....if not it will take three of the plastic tubes of gear oil....just cut the tips off of all three and have them ready to go....stick tube in bottom hole and roll it up...then stick second tube in and do the same, then the third tube. No need to spend several hundred bucks if you are not having carb problems. You can get the outboard gear oil and that pump to put it in with at WalMart

Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.

I just feel safer getting someone to do it this time. I want to make sure it's done RIGHT. I can try it next time but this time I wanna get someone that really knows what they are doing. That so hard to understand?

Good luck dude, ifn I was down there I would help you out with most of it but the carbs go past my comfort zone. Dont mind working on mine but someone elses is a different story. While you are at it get them to install a water pressure gauge if you dont have one, best gauge in the dash.

I have so many people in my ear telling me to do this and that so I try to do things that make a little sense to me. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. LOL A few hundred bucks is ALOT cheaper than buying a new motor

DD Mr Shurdon in StarkVegas would be way cheaper than that and you could visit puppy land while you were there, bet he would save you at least 300 bucks. Think Feesh is well satisfied as Scott and I are with what he's done for us.
