Great! Positive reviews makes me feel better about sending him $1000 to fix my Merc.
A little background... I picked up a really nice 1981 Glastron HPV-160 bass boat last spring (pic in my gallery). She ran like a top with that 115HP "tower of power" straight six.
Anyway, after a few trips I picked up a slight hesitation consistenting around 2000-2500 RPMs. I could overcome it by feathering the choke for a second or two. I figured carbs. I left the boat with Lee to get a tune-up and a onceover.
My bill is probably gonna be close to a grand... Tough pill to swallow. But, if she runs like a raped ape when he rolls it out of the garage, I'll still be happy!
