Go west on 1171 to 35W, go south on 35W and exit at Cabelas. Go see David Green (Opti) on here. He's always in the boats & motors section. He's a Mercury master tech and been in the business for a long time.

Charlie's Outboard in Alvarado. They do all my Mercury work and I've got nothing but good things to say about them. TONS of knowledge and they stay up to date with all the most recent classes that Mercury offers

If you live around fortworth then go to Charles in Alvarado. Take 35w south to Alvarad to hwy 67 gowest about two miles on the left is a little shop called Charlies and he's between a truck company and a bit building that works on trucks. He's the best in the area. Try him!!

Rockwall Marine. Several other great ones around Lake Fork, but Rockwall is closest to you.
