    Default Looking for a good motor mechanic!

    I need my motor worked on. Last year it quit running. I live in Marion and need a really good guy to work on it. Someone told me about the one at Horseshoe and I've talked to the one on 7th st in West Memphis. Anyone know of a good one that's not too pricey?

    There is one east of Pine Bluff off of 79, maybe to far for you to travel. Contact number is 870/395-1486.

    I highly recommend heath mitchell in stuttgart. Mitchell's ATV repair. He rebuilt my motor for me and gave me a great deal on it.

    I use Danny Rains at Horseshoe Boat Repair at Horseshoe lake. His number is (870) 339-2535. He's done good work for me for the last several years. His rate for a carb. overhaul is about $100. I just picked up two 9.9 hp.s from him that he rebuilt the carbs on. I'll try them out this weekend and see how he did. I'm sure they'll run ok.

    Is he the one right across those new condo's on the left side of the road? I have a 9.9 johnson that needs some major things done to it. I have heard you can turn it up to a 15 hp...not sure.

    That's him. You can turn up the older 9.9's, but not the newer ones.
