Man I tell you what, talk about raping me, those guys are theives. Bring in the Honda won't run, but will start, just no time to screw with it myself this week. Turns out it was a loose water separator, s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g air, that plus a blidge pump, plugs and fuel filter, $520 just unreal. Now I'm no mechanic, but duh first thing I'd have done was put a different gas tank on the outboard and if it ran fine, then run down the fuel/air problem on the boat. I'll bet they spent 2 hours going by the "outboard repair for dummies" playbook, before getting down to common sense. I'd write the manager a letter, but for what. What really pisses me off is no phone call or nothing, curious at what $$ figure do they intend to clue you in, that hey this is going to run you some bucks.

Wish my usual guy wasn't on vacation, with the odds of getting in after he came back slim, because I just know I'd have been out of it for $300 or less. Thieves, buyer beware, those guys will bend you over and stick it to you good.
