Gizmo, I'm tempted to send you one of my engines for the price of shipping. I've got a K&B .40 that is charred black on the inside, locked up, has stripped glow plug threads, broken cooling fins, cracked crank case, and the carburetor is broken off. It's also missing the drive plate and the threads on the crankshaft don't look right. It makes a fine paper weight if you don't mind the grease marks it leaves.
