[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 409525, member: 13975"] I agree. All of the basic stuff involved in a "tune-up" on these motors can be done by most anyone. A mechanic will charge you a solid chunk to do it too. It's been a long time since I had an outboard mechanic do anything for me but I think I was charged $100 for an impeller replacement and gear lube change. For reference, an impeller is about $20 and gear lube is maybe $5 and both can be changed in less than 30 minutes. May take a newbie longer but no more than a couple hours and you save some cash and gain some good knowledge on your motor in the process. Those are popular motors too so there are likely some how-to videos on youtube for them as well. [/QUOTE]
