My name is Son. I am a small time outboard mechanic by trade. Merc Inlines are my passion. Information on these great engines are endless and I definitely do not know everything. I diagnose and repair using information and skills gained (or lossed) over the last decade. Some methods are orthodox and by the book while others are not. Like many viewers I do not have a garage full of the "right" tools. Improvisation is a must. Any information or techniques can be used at your own risk. Feel free to add info in the comments or reach out to me directly on anything I may have missed or neglected. I am humble and always learning. Thank you. Son
