Re: 1969 40 HP Johnson
Well, I am really annoyed about the customer service. I call them on Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 pm when they close at 7:00 pm and they said "hes working on it". Then i call them at 12:30 pm the following day and they said that they did a compression test and it checked good in both cylinders and now he's checking the points and ignition. If they points and ignition and compression all checked good, why is it taking so long? they said two weeks, now we are pushing 3 weeks. I know that the compression and ignition test does NOT take that long! Also, if their business says two weeks and it takes three, WHY DIDNT THEY CALL ME TO UPDATE ME ON ANY OF THE FINDINGS? I am not an idiot, I worked on a bunch of different cars and I have worked on F-16's. This engines is NOT rocket science. I live in Vermont, we have 12 weekends of good boating, out of the 12 weekends we are lucky to get 7 without rain. TOO SHORT! What do these people do? Is this common for boat mechanics? do they typically work 4 hour days with a 1 hour lunch? I could have rebuild the whole engine in three weeks.
