It appears that the RI shop diagnosed the problem to the lift pump, and then tried to scam me into big $$ repairs, and possibly scare me into a repower. They left the hose off to remind themselves that the pump was where the real problem was, or possibly they just forgot to hook it back up.
Very hard to prove that there was intentional negligent behavior here.

I believe I know which north of Boston Evinrude mechanic you are referring to and he is definitely the top Johnson/Evinrude guy in Eastern MA.

Pike Marine in Essex, Eagle Marine in Sagamore, Millway Marina in Barnstable and Ship Shops in South Yarmouth would be right up there too.
