If I could get someone to give me an engine I would totally go into shock. Don't get hopeful. What's your old engine and what's wrong with it? You might be able to get away with just replacing the crank, sleeve, and piston. Which is around $50 on most engines.

Oh, and if anyone has an old broken non-running Picco .28 or LRP .30 I would gladly pay like, $100 bucks for it, or trade a new, running F4.6. If you have 50 piccos or are super rich and would rather just buy a new engine than fix it please seriously contact me.



Now we see the chances of this happening even when the engine I want is busted and I'm offering something in return. But actually, I was serious. And if I get a broken picco I'll send my F4.6 to this guy.

EDIT: Never mind about sending a .28 to him. He needs something like an .18 for a Redcat Volcano SV.

50 bucks for a piston, sleeve and crank? I don't know, that seems too cheap.

l got a revo engine with 20 hours on it and a OS with 5 hours on it out of a revo, you pay postage you can have.l gone over to electric and cant go back, there so much faster, cleaner, less hassle, and that equals more fun for me, some people like tinkering with the nitro ones, lve done that for 20 years, had enough. These things are gunna rust, you can have.Post in here l will lob my MSN in a message for you if you reply.We can organise, maybe you can donate a carton of beer as well ! l can show picks so u can see the condition. The OS is pretty much so new its not even run in yet. There out of a revo.
Revo engine is free, the OS is a carton of beer !

instead of posting this in every forum, get off your ass and do something about it you sponge.

Actually lm not new here l just lost all my details to my account because l havent been on for over a year, l moved house town and job locations, been a crazy year, well 2010 anyways. l had over 1000 posts infact.
But yea its cool mate, lm giving the stuff away so, they pay freight, its no skin off my nose really, just better than seeing them rust for no reason, but thanks for the concern and time to say so, there are alot of people who will probably benifit from your advise.
