She did question the work & amount which is why I decided to put this post up. I feel she payed for service not needed as it had no impact on the problem which seemed to get worse after each visit.
I do not mind paying for work completed properly but what really was the determining factor was when the adjuster and service tech found parts of the outdrive not properly assembled. And when you lifted up on the outdrive it was abvious both piston bushings were worn, there was at least 1/4inch of play in each bushing.

Having worked as a technician for 20 years before becoming a contractor I believe attention to detail, which I feel was lacking here, is very important.
All of my work is completed with that in mind.
Another example of lacking detail, the cover filled up with waterdue to the missing pole and dirty footprints all ober the boat.

I'm sure there are plenty who have had excellent work there but we did not.
