Generator/Small Engine Repair mechanic?

[JasonC]

Hey All,

I'm looking for a small engine repair person/shop that is honest, I know a couple in Duxbury/Hanover that are horrible, so would prefer to pay a few bucks to someone who is honest and knows what they are doing and needs the money.

Know anyone who works on gas powered generators in the Pembroke/Kingston area? I think mine has a minor problem as its sat for quite some time and really doesn't start.

Thanks,
JC

take the carb off and clean it. It isn't hard. take the jets out and make sure the passages are open, and you can see light through any holes in the jets

There's a place here in North Attleboro that's always treated me OK....telling me if they can fix something, if it's cheaper to fix it myself or justs buy another one, or if they can, how much it will be up front. J&J Small Engine.

Thanks guys, maybe I'll check it out by myself do some basics, change the gas etc... couldn't hurt to learn a bit more myself as well.

Morrison's in Plymouth does all my small engine work and has always been fair and dependable. They are south on Long Pond Rd after taking Rte 3 exit 5.

I have a contact for cemtral Mass but nothing for out east. But if someone needs a housecall in central Mass, let me know and I will send you his number. He does good work at a reasonable cost.

Just thought I'd throw into this thread, for anyone looking for similar small engine/snowblower/etc type work in the Eastern MA / near Boston area in the future.

Paul @ Park Ave Citgo in Arlington is great with small engines. Very nice, very honest guy.
