First of all, I know (now, at least) that buying a boat with an L-Drive was not the wisest decision I have ever made. But it is too late now. Now I am just trying to salvage what I spent on the boat, and what the repairs to this point have cost.

Aparently my carburetors are bad, both the lower and upper. The service guy told me the parts are obsolete, which I am discovering is true. So, in a last ditch effort to not have literally thrown 6K away, anyone now where I can find a repair kit (FK10288) or an upper and lower carb (F698061-3 and F699061-3)? New, used, rebuilt - don't care as long as I can get the stupid boat to go above half thrust.

Thanks in advance!!
