Default Johnson v6 carb rebuild

Any reco anyone REASONABLE, but good to possibly do a carb rebuild/cleaning on my 2003 V6?

What should the job run for those that have had it done?

Give a call to Seaboard Marine in Keyport. I'm not sure about the price of rebuilding carbs but I brought my boat with v6 ocean runner that was idling on 3 cylinders to them after I exhausted all my knowledge and after a linc and sync, my motor runs exceptional.

I also used Seaboard for my 96 Johnson 225 after I rebuilt the carbs myself. The rebuild went well but I could not get it to idle correctly. Had them do the sync and link and the motor has run great ever since. Had it back to me in 3 days.

I have heard good things about them and have bought some parts from them in the past.

What did the link and sync run if you don't mind me asking?

PM is fine. Thanks.

Like DDDman, I rebuilt my carbs myself and after thought I screwed up the rebuild and directed them to check the 3 carbs on the dead cylinders. After ripping the carbs down and finding nothing wrong and then doing the link and sync, it was $400 and change.
