Good Cummins diesel mechanic

June 09, 2012, 11:36:21 am

Does anyone know of a good diesel mechanic in the Wilton, Farmington or Saco Maine areas. Need quite a bit of work done on my 1993 Cummins engine. Have the diagnostics from the Cummins shop in Saco Maine, but was wondering if anyone knew of a good mechanic in this part of the country.

Roland, I live in the Sebago Lake area and because we recently bought our FT I have been keeping my eyes peeled for a decent diesel mechanic too. I have a freind in the trucking business here and I am going to check in with him.
There are several independant diesel shops in the greater Portland area but I don't know enough about them to recommend one just yet. I will let you know if I find out anything good.

Roland,
Not sure exactly what you're looking for, BUT;
Saco to Farmington is about 80 miles - crow flight. I'm about 60 miles from Saco - crow flight.
Just five miles from where we live, there's a small authorized Cummins Service facility.
They used to avoid motorhomes because of the difficulty of access as compared to trucks. As economic times changed, they started working on motorhomes.
The sons (in their mid thirties) now run the business and they are perfect complements to one another. One is a techno-geek and a superb mechanic. The other is a superb mechanic (and supervisor) that is also a sophisticated techno-geek. Better yet, they both love Foretravels. They had never worked on one until mine and now they are both in the market for personal FT's. I'm sure they could do a great job for you. The only possible hitch is that they are highly sought after, never lack for work and therefore don't come cheaply. They are meticulous in attention to detail and no Cummins/diesel job is too difficult.
But if any of the FoFum's folks need a high quality, authorized Cummins service location in New England, I don't think that you can find much better.
