Any mechanics in south Jersey?

Hi there,

I live in North Carolina and bought a partially converted bus up in New Jersey,

The bus seems to be running in limp mode. It has a CAT 3126 engine and I believe the limp mode is related to the dpf.

Bus has been at a mechanics shop for 3 weeks and nothing has been done and mechanic is now ignoring/avoiding my calls.

Is there anyone on here in the Jersey area that might be interested in getting bus going on down the road? Or can anyone recommend a good shop near Atlantic City?

I've taken my bus to two different mechanic's shops in Philadelphia, about an hour from you. I think they're both trustworthy and competent but not necessarily cheap (or any cheaper than normal for truck shops).

I'd be happy to help out with anything myself, although I'm not very knowledgeable about the mechanical side of buses (very eager to learn). If you need any bad welding done I can definitely handle that.
