Anyone know of good, reliable, less expensive rebuilder in Ga?

Are you sure you need a rebuild? Have you done a compression/pressure test?

Putt, putt

No, no compression test, what else could it be? It`s got new plugs and all that andwas running great for a couple of months. I have a fuel-cut -bypass terminal for it but haven`t installed it...so it probably didn`t overboost, good fuel, new filters. It`s a Vert and has a leak so after the rain passes I`ll remove plugs and see...
