well I could not wait….till next winter to open it up !!
original paint on all nuts & bolts faces , incl thermostat, gearcase …..
all mechanical joints in white lubriplate
cyl walls looks great prop turns by hand
flywheel stuck….for now and pistons soaking for now.
engine still has the white break in instruction label on the side !!!
all decals unscratched
no nicks on the prop negligible wear on the tip of gearcase
engine spotless almost looks like it was run very few hours ( plugs dark so it ran a bit)
hopefully innards not all rusted. … rings probably just stuck..for now
zertz everywhere on this engine ! nice
not bad for 50$..for now !
