Status: offline 		Good Evening All, Looking for a backplate on the tank of the Cox Peewee 020 engine. It is the mount for the engine and also contains the needle valve. Any help is appreciated. Individuals or a company who may still have parts for these older Cox engines. Thanks, JK

Good luck,
Bob G

Status: offline 		Thanks for the reply, I have a couple of the mounting ears broken off of mine that is why I am looking for a replacement. I have found at least one good suggestion out of all the replies. I was trying to avoid Cox themselves as I understand shipping alone can get ridiculous. Thanks again. JK

That may have been my post that you read about the shipping. It was a surcharge for shipping to Canada that made it expensive.

Send me a PM or email with your address and I'll send you a backplate.

Merry Christmas

Status: offline 		Bipe Flyer, Sure appreciate the help. The needle I have has been working even though it appears a little bent. I have the engine on a BT-70 proflile free flight from about the mid 60's or so. Trying to help my grandson become a modeler and feel you must start from the bottom and work up in difficulty. Even though I fly mainly R/C I still enjoy small free flights from my days as a youngster. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Sincerely, JK

With that little engine you can start out with F/F and C/L and eventually add a throttle to fly R/C. You are a lucky man to be able to share this hobby with your grandson.
