    Re: boats down (smalljawer)

    Its ridiculous on how much they charge. I had a 997SI installed and they charged me damn near 400.00. I about choked on my chicken to get that bill, I will attempt to fix or install my self next time. But if it is an engine bend over and say KY please!

    DEdwards - Shady Creek's shop rate is $75/hour. Seen people post their local rate as high as $125/hour!!! Talk about bending waaaaaaaaaaay over!!!

    Re: boats down (ReelDoc)

    well I don't feel as bad becasuse alber's is only 60.00 but 300 bucks is way to much for a basic water pump, fuel lines , and spark plugs

    OUCH!!! The last water pump they did on my 200EFI was about $125, but that included the housing as well as the impeller. Here's where I get my spark plugs - http://sparkplugs.com/. Best price I've found and fast service.

    I was going to take it to shady creek but the guy I talked to said the " prefered" not to work on force motors. Didn't say they wouldn't ( he did say that they had one ion the shop) but didn't act like they wanted to either.
