Default Inland NW 928 mechanic?


Hi guys, I haven't posted here in the 928 forum for a while now.
The Green Machine's clutch arm pivot ball stud has sheared off again from the bellhousing.
Sean Ratt fixed it back in Texas. Couple of years later it has broken again.
I am too old and cantankerous to fix it myself.
Anyone know a decent mechanic up this way? Colin? I live in the Idaho Panhandle.
PS. The OB may be up for sale one of these years. I need to get a tractor.

You don't need a tractor. What you need is to move back to Texas so you can drive your car.

Collin would be the somebody that could fix your car.

PPS- Please excuse my lack of response timing in advance. I have zero internet up here and my phone only works half the time.
But I like it like that!

You probably need a flight of vodka shots done in the correct order to fix things just right!

Jesus that was a fast reply. Before I could even post myself, after myself. I thought you had a job? My mistake.

Dude. It is 08:15 in the morning, I am coming off my 7th night shift in a row, prowling the streets of Spokane and picking up zombies.
Trust me, I have my vodka shots in order.
Tell your hot wife that I said hi.

Colin Jensan in Abbotsford is where I go. About a 3hr drive for me from Seattle. Colin can take care of it for you, I have no doubt.

I met him at 3rd Coast a few years back. He diagnosed my surging idle issue in about 15 seconds using only one hand. Is he in BC or Oregon?

I'm not on here as much lately with being busy at work and two young children. But I can definitely resolve this issue for you. I am in Abbotsford BC.
