hi blokes.

im buying a 2nd hand motor from melbourne soon and i wouldnt mind getting it checked over by a mechanic down that way. im from brisbane so its not easy for me to get down there to check it myself

im guessing a mobile mechanic would be the best way to go about it.

does anybody know a good one from down there?or might even have a mate who'se a outboard mechanic for a dealer that might do it (even if it means some cash on the side for him)

thanks cobes

p.s-its a 50hp mercury 2stroke

Best mobile mechanic in Melbourne is Al from AJL Marine. He also does pre-purchase boat inspections so getting him out to check an outboard should be no problem.

Al can be reached on mobile 0407 811 671.

PS: Epping is a northern suburb of Melbourne approx 25km from the CBD.

If Al is too busy, there are also 2 marine mechanics in the area (Thomastown, approx 5kms from Epping) but I'm not sure they do any on site work. They are Ange at Apex Marine (03) 9464 6665 and Mark at Triple M (MMM?) Marine. Unfortunately I cant help you with Marks number.
