Yeah I didn't mean buy a brand new engine....just a new to me engine......but after calling every used parts store in the southeast....I finally found a place that had a used unit that he is going to sell me for $100!! It helped when I found out that I could use the same unit from all the 1980s 115s and 130s. Feels like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. Now I just hope the mechanic diagnosed it right and this fixes the issue!!!
