I brought him my motor that was running a bit rough. He said he'd look at it. I came in later and found my heads were off and. The damages pointed out were very bad. In hind site its pretty clear the motor would not have been running hardly at all if those damages were present prior to his inspection. Keep in mind the motor was running well just had a little roughness at idle only. Thinking he was honest at the time which I dont now, I agreed to have the motor rebuilt. Thereafter, he told me he would really like the motor for his boat. He proposed a swap. He proposed swapping me a 2005 250 with 50 hrs on it that ran great for my older 200 plus 5k. It was to take 2 weeks. I needed it in 3 days as i had friends coming in for a fishing trip. He required payment up front to move to the front of the line. I gave it to him. After I gave it to him I asked him why he needed a cashiers check. He said it was to reduce his income to lessen alimony payments. Well the motor wasnt ready for the fishing trip. Then he claimed health problems, then etc. months later I told him I was picking up the boat regardless of the motor condition. I had a police escort to pick up the boat.
When I showed up the motor was on the boat, no lower end and the heads were off. Yet I saw my old motor inside his shop that looked like it had been worked on. He also gave me a few boxes of parts with the heads and many other parts. My cb antenna was broken in half, the boat was a mess as it had been outside for months. We agreed he would keep it inside. I took the motor to a reputable mechanic for inspection. Upon delivery I asked the mechanic to inspect it in front of me. He showed me the motor was siezed up, a piston was missing. We found it in the box of parts. It has a 1" hole burned thru the top of it. The cylinders were scored. The motor was a 2002 not a 2005. Its clear the motor had many mor hrs on it than 50. Im out of state as other posts. Fraud over state lines.
I'm Procesuting please contact if you you have had similar. @aol.com He had me make the cashiers check to Victoria russell who he said was his business manager. He had me drive to his friend ernies house to look at the motor. Ernie told me the motor was a 2005 , had 50 hrs on and it was running great. well he lied too. as it was a siezed fried up 2002 motor. in doing research it appears he rips people off then moves. he has had at least 4 addresses in two cities I have found.
