I need a good mechanic! Motor and Drive need rebuild!
« on: March 18, 2010, 02:07:17 PM »
Hello Everyone! Ive been following the site for a while now without joining, I finally broke down and am now legit. I have a 1996 Commander 2100lx with a marine power sport-pac 454 and a dominator jet. I am the original owner of the boat and have had no problems.... until last summer. I was fresh off the ramp out at havasu and all of the sudden a loud grinding noise, tons of vibration, and oil in the bilge. Needless to say I wasnt very happy. I immediately shut down and havent tried to turn it over since. I need to get the whole power plant freshened up along with the jet drive and whatever damage fixed. Seeing as I havent ever had a need for a mechanic, I dont know anyone tried and true to call. I am in southern california and need this done asap! The weather is heating up and I am getting the bug again. Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give!

Welcome! Many good sources for the work you need right here. Really depends on what you want to do with it. As far as the pump is concerned, Noone but Tom at JBP or Jim Brock at Cyclone will ever touch mine. Engines? Dave at A&D or Barry at Obnoxious if you want extreme. PM Luckystiff, he's got an in with all those guys and does delivery/pickup as well in Socal.

Depending on what you have done, and who does it, you're looking at $1200 & up. I know a good shop in Pacoima if you're interested.
