Compression Check showed high of 115 to 105. Oil Pressure 32 lbs Cold 29 Lbs Hot. It is located here in Cleveland,Oh 1300.00 or trade for 70 GS Parts
HI...interested in hearing about specs, oil pressures, QJ? carb, distributor, WHO built this motor? etc...PIX? talk to me... Wheelz, Tampa Bay
HI ALL! I am considering this motor and its not that I dont trust John,...but, its always wise to get another opinion, right?....I would pay someone to go hear this motor run and pay attention to its characteristics: ie: oil pressure, running temp and any odd sounds at startup WHEN ITS COLD . . not pre-warmed up, kinda stuff... SO, ANYONE IN/AROUND the Cleveland Ohio area that would be willing to help me, please advise. Thanq! Wheelz, Tampa Bay
Hi John! THANQ for your time on this. :beer I received feedback from Gary regarding this engine. I have a few concerns and I will PM you soon. :TU: Wheelz, Tampa bay
Motor was started last Sat after 6 months of sitting. Cold Oil Pressure was 32 lbs to Operating Temp at 29 lbs. Had a slight lifter noise that quieted down after second start up. Checked 3 different cylinders for Compression Check range from 105-115. Idled well and was responsive with no hesitation or flat spots. Wheelz you are up.
i may be heading down SC/Fla way from Fort Wayne come the 28th. could probably help out with shipping for a minimal fee if this goes through.
wow..THANXX!!! That would be a HUGE help Bob!!! I MAY have to take you up on that offer..what costs do you have in mind? and WHAT is your Florida destination? Wheelz, Tampa Bay
i'm going to wind up over towards Vero Beach, so you're on the 'wrong' coast. :laugh: also, i'd have to go a little north to hit Cleveland. i dunno, let me talk to Lou and see what the plans are.
Well...I have been considering all angles of his deal and I have made a decision. I am going to pass on this motor. Understand John, it has nothing to do with you. Your asking price is fair, someone will buy it. I dont feel the need to post my decision here, but PM me if you want a detailed explanation. Thank you for your time. Wheelz, Tampa Bay
No problem at all in fact I was going to pull the plug on this deal anyways,it was getting waaaaay to complicated to sell the motor to you. I hope you find one closer. Thanks
