Wish you were closer. I need something to get me by now until my 4 stroke magically appears.

Finally cleared out the garage and fired it up for a little, but since it was sitting for a while the carbs were leaking. I did a compression check, left bank was:149,150 right bank was:140,150. I took one of the carbs apart and cleaned it and it stopped leaking. I'll be going through the other 3 shortly.

Crazy you still have this engine, is it advertised on CL?

Like others have said, if you were closer I'd buy it to put on a project.

It's only on a few sites, not cl yet. Ive been busy with other stuff and it's been buried in the back of my garage, but now I've dragged it out to the door. I figured if I listed it on the smaller sites I wouldn't be emptying out the garage for some tire kicker. Now that I've moved it I'll put it up there and hopefully get it sold.

Know what you mean about the tire kickers. I like to wheel and deal, and I always build some negotiation room into the price, but some people will nit pick the hell out of something, then try to beat you up on the price, offering half. Tell them to go buy a new one.

I sold an 89 110 20" with controls for $800, and that's what I was asking. I had a guy drive 2 1/2hrs to offer me $400. Another came and thought it would be newer? I wound up selling it to a guy that knew what it was and didn't even haggle with me.

Carbs all straightened out and one coil replaced, she's purring like a kitten now.
