Took it out today and it was running fine for a few hours.
Started acting up on me like it had a gas issue so I popped the cover off and gas was pouring out of the carb anyone ever have this happen to them.

Yep..... Usually it means the needle is not seating for the float, causing the float to stick open and allowing fuel to pour right out the carb. Take your carb off and clean it well. Any small debri can cause this to happen very easily.

Any one know a good place to take my motor to have it looked at in STL County?

My 25 Mariner did something very similar. A phenolic plate on the side of the carb was cracked. Easy fix expensive part.

Depending on where you are at, OPC Marine in Imperial, MO is a great place.

I am in Bridgeton. I would not be opposed to taking it to OPC I just want a reputable place that works on Mercury motors, and I dont really know of any close.
With that being said I would like to find something a little closer if I could.
I just want to take it somewhere where I can trust them to do me right and in turn they will get all my business.
