you guys are great, very helpfull. so i guess i should go ahead and try to fix this one. or should i just ship it to schools and let him send me a bill!lol. ihate it but, no shops around here can get to it for about 150 years. my luck, buy the time im done replacing parts i could have bought another motor. for that matter, by the time i'm done pestering skools with OUR project he'll have a bounty on my head. hooker dude dont live to far from me, and i believe he would do it cheap. aint no balistics on an arrow,lol.

one more thing. if i did sell this thing for parts, what would be a fair price? just ball park. tx
