There is a good thing about getting a mechanic who's good at what he does and there is a not so good thing about getting a mechanic that is good as what he does.
When you find a good diesel mechanic, one that knows what he is doing, the good thing is that he is going to fix the beast. He will check the whole engine out, learn what needs fixing and then fix it. He is not going to fix the doohickey and have you pay for it if it doesn't need fixing. What needs fixing gets fixed correctly.
The not so good thing about getting a good diesel mechanic is that he name has spread far and wide and everyone want him to work on their doohickey and, as a result, he's busy. Busy! Busy!! Busy!!!
When it turned out that problem was not biological but mechanical, it meant that I would run up against Eric the Diesel Engine Shaman's reputation and the demand for his services. Thus it is that as this Sunday passes away, ABISHAG's engine is still not functioning as Eric has been unable to find the time to fix the doohickey. I am hopeful that Monday will be a different story.
AH! THE JOYS OF BOAT OWNERSHIP!!!!!
