The Jet Joe was a Wren copy so these parts may fit, if you pick up the postage (from Oz) you can have them if
1/ I still have them & 2/ if I can find them.
A friend had a Jet Joe around that time, I think JJ used something cobbled together from hose clamps to mount
the starter. His engine was never really succesful in a Boomerang intro, replaced with a Jetcat P-70.
Thank you for the info (I had no idea its an MW54 knockoff) and the offer. I'm mostly done designing in CAD a new motor cap and starter motor holder, so if it doesn't work out and I give up (rather possible) I will take you up on that offer, it is truly generous of you. If its an MW54 clone, my understanding was the MW54 had multiple compressor options. I wonder if a simple compressor update would net me some extra thrust....
