need advise

[a catered life]

ok here is the problem
recently purchased a 89 eliminator in late september and havent had a chance to launch yet i want to have a good mechanic check it out but dont know one, my last mechanic moved . i was thinking of taking it to eliminator in mira loma for a overall check. is this overkill are do yo think its a great idea. I live in the upper dessert area on la, palmdale, where theres only one repair shop :argue: (one i dont trust) if you think its a bad idea please provide the name and address of a good honest mechanic

You're not that far from Teaque Custom Marine in Valencia. Whatever they tell you-you can take it to the bank- they do know their stuff.

If your not sure of the overall condition of your boat,engine ,drive etc.
I also agree take it to Teague and have them do an overall inspection and maint.It's going to cost you either now or later and later you may be out with your family for the weekend or ,down time during the summer.good luck hope it all checks out and congrats on your purchase. :mix:

If You Go To Teague Ask For Mario, Tell Him Dave Petty Told You To Call. But I Would Call Mike @ Stick Man Performance 818-425-9057 Also Tell Him Dave Petty Told You To Call. Good Luck
