I am bummed out because I have fished pretty much all winter long and couldn't wait for the weather to start popping. Now that it is, my boat needs repaired. I took it to East Side Marine 2 weeks ago because the motor was not "peeing". I told them what was going on and I assumed it was the impeller. I also had a fuel leak and had pretty much narrowed that down to the fuel pump. I could have done these things myself but we left to go on vavation and didn't have time to do the work. Trying to save time I figured they could do it fo me while I was gone, right? Yesterday was 2 weeks that they had my boat. They supposedly changed the impeller, but not the fuel pump as it had not come in yet (2 weeks?). So I picked up the boat and took it home and replace the fuel pump myself when it came in. So I was going to take it out today, but when I hooked up the hose to make sure everyhting was going to stay cool, no water was coming out, still. GRRRRR! I am not going to bad mouth East Side because I have worked with Steve and his mechanics for several years now and they have always treated me right. But if I was going to $500 (which I was SHOCKED at the anount) to change an impeller and fuel pump on a 1979 Evinrude 70hp, then it should work, right? The fuel pump was still working, by the was, it just had a small leak that was causing some cold start issues. Now I have to take it back and find out what is wrong. I'm sorry just frustrated and needed to vent. Thanks for listening. banghead
