 Re: No One Is Answering
Sounds like a answering machine that mentions no parts sales to non Customers would help. If thats your policy. Also would stop unwanted work stoppages. Pick a hour out the day for call backs.

 Re: No One Is Answering
I deal with homeowners a lot with what I do. I have to smile and bite my tongue when they "imply" that they know more than me on how to pour concrete. Gotta make them feel smart, cause at the end of the day they are writing the check to me.

 Re: No One Is Answering
Well i realize that there are a lot of people that buy and dont know how to install or know what they are doing.. Im only 21 but i spent over half those years in my neighbors shop rebuilding motors and what have you with him so i am by no means a licensed mechanic, but i know my way around a motor and what im doing with my hands when it comes to them. I just have not been able to get ahold of anyone to order the part.
But with that being said, Calen actually just PMd me and his reply was he is way to busy at the moment and cant hardly keep parts in stock for the motors he is rebuilding and working on. So i am thankful for his reply and information, now i can move on and not be waiting around.

 Re: No One Is Answering
Boat Dr took my call, got me the parts I needed, and spent 10 minutes answering my clarification questions on installation.
He was pleasant and helpful to deal with. Not disparaging any other builder, just sharing a positive experience.

 Re: No One Is Answering
I understand that the cam went bad on him and its not his fault.
BUT, I learned a long time ago that Sportsmen get stupid after July 4th. Plenty people quit fishing and start tending to deer stands, food plots, and anything hunting related.
For a mud motor mechanic there is no busier timeof year, and it won't stop until Christmas and then there might be a lull.
Its just a busy time. And double want uncleJ said

 Re: No One Is Answering
One another note. MMT is a small percentage of his business.. Crawfish were plentiful this year just like every other year. The commercial fisherman fish 7 days a week. Which means that they are constantly breaking shit. They need their boat asap cause thats how they earn their living. Ive seen them waiting in their truck while the mechanics are still working on their motors.

It would appear as though we have a sock-puppet in the house.
LEVEE RAT is better known as his former screen name, bubba777.
