OK, no problem. I take my Gamefisher to Bob Bradley Marine (702-384-1070). Victor or Bob have been real good to me and got the Gamefisher starting in 1 or 2 pulls all the time. Carb jets might be easy to get. If you decided to go that way ask them how long to do the repairs - they get busy.
Saw 4 stroke Mercury Outboards at West Marine yesterday - wow they are expensive! over $1000. Guess I'm just not up to date to small motor prices. 4 strokes and EFI's seem to be where we boaters need to be going. Trouble is for me those 4 strokes are heavy! EFI is nice but as someone else said on another forum all I need is $5000 and my old 115 in exchange.
Several lakes in CA won't even let you launch unless the big motor meets certain specs for pollution.
I'm changing out livewell hoses today, replacing 2 bad lid hinges and resealing my drainplug - so no fishing for couple days.
