Well my recommendation would be to try to diagnose the problem before taking it in, as most issues with these skis can be dealt with inexpensively at home and then if you have to take it in, you know exactly what work they need to do...
The carbs being rebuilt by the previous owner wouldn’t change anything for me. The internal passages on these carbs are really small and easy to clog up, and the ethanol gasoline that we have these days does not help. For the $100 or so that it costs for all of the correct rebuild parts, I would never replace a motor without going through the fuel system at the same time...
If i have the right tool I’m going to check the compression before i take it to the mechanics tonight...and speaking of that what do i do with the spark plugs when checking the compression to make sure the ignition doesn’t fire. I don’t think my model has a spot to ground the spark caps
