Are there any ASP parts distributors left here in the USA? Horizon used to carry them but dropped the line. I know Hobby People carry the Magnum, but was just wondering who carries the ASP?????

There's no ASP dealer in the USA. Magnum engines are ASPs but at times there are slight differences between them

The Evolution engines are made by the same company and some of the Evolutions have a few similar parts to an equivalent ASP.

Horizon used to be a ASP distributor and carried ASP parts for many years. I always bought mine there. I even bought ASP parts to use on Magnums. But their ASP inventory is rather slim now.

I think I read someone in the US just took on the line but I can't remember who. Maybe you can contact Sanye and see if that is true.

Boxbeam,

For what engine do you need parts? I might be able to help you out.

Some of us have bought parts for ASP's at this place

www.justengines.unseen.org

They are in Great Britain but the service was timely and good.

Keep in mind that ASP engines have been in this country for close to 30 years and they have gone through evolutionary changes. If your engine is real old, there may not be anyone with new parts for it?

Thanks for all the replies. I don't need any parts at the present, but was just wondering who carried them now here in the USA. E-Hobbies still carries a few parts also, mainly for the 65/80 four strokes, but very limited.

i have recently acquired a new ASP 1.08,(the one with a red cylinder head) but it needs a high speed needle -
any ideas of where i can acquire one ? - i've been told OS parts might fit; or am i going to have to resort to a
new carburetor assembly?
thanks,
greg

Check with le fou who posted two or three replys ahead of you on this thread, sounds like he may have some parts for ASP's and may be able to help you out.

Try Justengines in the UK, they may have some.

this is what I had to do
http://webpages.charter.net/rcfu/ConstGuide/MCM.html
it serves its purpose. I don't know about the red headded 1.08, but mine has a 7D carb on it. I'm beginning to think that as inexpensive as theese things are, they were meant to be disposable. The only other places I've been able to find ASP parts is a place in New Zealand and China.

Frankly, I suspect that most of the engine manufacturers would prefer that we think of their engines as being disposable.

I'm now in the habit of scouring the auction sites for deals on engines like these. That way I can accumulate a stock pile of engines from which to draw parts when needed. So far it seems to be working.
