Compression Check

AVOID, AVOID, AVOID I recently brought in 2 WaveRunners for annual service. The FIRST thing Joe (I think the service manager) said was that if these aren't properly winterized the cylinders will rust and the next time you start them, the cylinder will be damaged resulting in needing a new engine. This was BEFORE he even saw them. I told him that one was running fine and the other was acting like it needed carb work. He never called me like he said he would so I called him 2 days later. He said that they did a compression check and BOTH needed new engines then probably carb work. This would cost around $7000. He gave me the compression numbers of about 90 psi per cylinder. I knew that he was lying because I had driven them BOTH 4 days earlier. One was acting sluggish. The other topped out at almost 60mph with no issues. When I went in to pick them up, they tried to charge me $320 for compression check. This is a procedure that takes about 10-15 minutes. Next, I took them to a small shop on Lake Houston. He let me WATCH him do the compression check. Guess what? All 6 cylinders were at 120. That is PERFECT!! He is rebuilding the carbs and will have them for me next week. Please, Please, Please Go ANYWHERE ELSE!!! Joe had also told me that the last 6 (3 pair) ahead of me ALL needed new engines. I had to give them a 1 star rating because a zero wasn't available. I should also mention that I live in Katy and took my waverunners all the way to Lake Houston ( I don't use them at Lake Houston) for repair. I don't care how far you have to drive to get away from this place...DO IT.
