Anyone out there deal with a reliable outboard mechanic here in the Cape Cod area (Steve, Hooper)? Having a very strange fuel management problem with one of my Johnson 140 VRO's. Even off Cape works since I can bring the boat to them.

Steve...you're the man. I was dry all last weekend because of a fuel problem, I'm loosing my mind because it's finally on down here.

Squiddy-

I was also given Andy's name and number by a friend of mine from Nauset Marine. My buddy says he is a great mechanic. So, I second the endorsement. I was having engine problems lately and it turned out to be two thermostats had gone, but when you're as clueless about engines as I am, it can be frustrating (especially in July)!

Thanks Hoop...I ended up replacing the fuel pump last week and was off and running. Still trying to touch base with andy though, always good to have a reliable mechanic.
