    Once you get the part from DFI, try Pirates Cove Marina just outside of Ottawa.
    http://www.piratecovemarina.com/

    They have an awesome John / Rude mechanic who performed a rebuild on my 115 FICHT.

    In my experience you really need a dealer with experience on these motors.
    I bought mine used from a dealer with no experience and had a pile of troubles until I got an expert on the the job.
    That and the tons of knowledge here and your friend should be fine.

    Good Luck.

    98 Johnson FICHT 115 HP
    model: J115FTLECS
    serial: G04535337
    99 Princecraft 176 FishPro.
