The engine stopped running 4 minutes into the last flight. No crashes no dings. Sometimes the engine would run very rough when first started. It allways smoothed out in a few seconds. Could the rough shaking at idle be enough to crack the case? The airplane is a pulse 125 with a two piece motor mount. Could the flexing of the motor mount bolted to a plywood firewall be enough to stress the case?
The case costs 89 dollars. Thats four hundred less than a new engine. Compression is good.

Thanks for the reply pope
