    Engine repair

    Looking for a repair shop in the south central ohio area that is good with the old Johnson outboards. Got a 89 and it just wont idle for poop. was going to replace the check valves but not sure if that's the problem. Runs good otherwise. Just not sure who to take it to? Tthanks

    I have always heard that Knox Marine was the best repair place for Johnson/Evinrude in Ohio.
