if you are serious about spending the dollars on a 12 year old engine i would suggest you bore all 3 cylinders(i recomend larrys outboard service for the boring hes been doing it 25 years or more)hes located albany area.
boring,3 new factory pistons rings,gasket kit carb kits crank bearings wrist pin bearings new water pump complete kit 3 new ngk spark plugs
i rebuilt a 50 yammie at a local dealer in 2007 if my memory is good i think the estimate came in under 2000.00 dollars with a 90 day shop warrasnty

oh well, we tried. are they doing the cleaning on the carbs? i hope you ran a compression before you bought. if they are making the repairs, when you go to pick it up, have them do a compression while you watch to be sure you aren't getting a bad motor.
