Can anyone recommend a good, reliable mechanic in the North Texas area? I have a 2001 80 hp four stroke Yamaha that I recently had a buddy clean all 4 carbs but the boat still isn't running great. Think the carbs may need to be synced but not sure.

Try Charlie's outboard in Alvarado Texas off of Hwy 67 west. He's the best I've found in 23years and doe's a %100 job for you and has reliable as you can get. Try him and bet you will not go to any one else.

I appreciate the replies but Alvarado is about 90 miles from my house and I was hoping someone knew of someone a little closer to home. I live about 10 minutes Northwest of Ray Roberts.
