We headed out on Hyco this morning and after about 10-15 minutes at about 1/4 throttle the oil warning went off on my '96 Johnson 50hp. The boat is new to us this year. It has oil injection, which I had planned to do away with, but hadn't gotten to it yet.

So the horn went off and the lite flashed and I cut her off right away. I checked oil level, checked the primer bulb, cranked it back up and within a minute got the horn again. At that point I shut it down and put the TM in the water.

My first thought is to disable the oiler, mix the gas and try again .......... but as I say it's new to us and with a family vacation coming up next month I would rather just have a good mechanic check it out, tune it up and get it back in good running order.
The deal is I don't know anyone personally in this area and would rather work with someone with a good reputation. I've heard some horror stories about 1 or 2 shops in this area.
Greensboro, Martinsville, Danville Burlington, Hillsboro, Durham all are within range, if any of you can offer a recomendation it would be greatly appreciated.
