I have bought a lot of motors used like this. This is the first one i got screwed on. I have 2 FMS motors right now, in my buggy and sc8, and they run great, no problems with them at all. Problem on this motor was seller got it from a "good friend" that swears the motor had a new p/s/r in it and was in great shape when he sold it to me. Hind sight is always 20/20, but it is partly my fault for not totally checking it out when i got it. I trusted him and got screwed. Won't happen again, and i really doubt i will ever buy another used motor.
I was really going to buy some 50% fuel and blow this thing to bits, but think i will just toss it on ebay for a parts motor, carb and case are good at lease.
Anyway, water under the bridge now.
Monty, i really apprecitate your advice and knowledge.

Thanks for checking the innards of the motor for me before shipping it. Heat cycling it now with my new heater!

I got my motor and heater today Monty! You're right! Something must have hitched up shipping speed. I was expecting it on Monday. No big deal! I was just a tad bit overanxious anyway.

I heard that the USPS is in hole to the tune of something like 3 Billion. They're looking at dipping into retirement benefits to pay for the deficit. 10 years of internet transactions and advertising has done them in.
