Hello,
I purchased some used equipment from a guy who got out of the hobby.With that came two used engines.The one is a Magnum GP 40 & the other is a Magnum pro 25.The 25 was seized up but the 40 had very few runs on it.(the head,case & muffler arent even discolored)I called around to some hobby shops to see if I could get rebuild kits or gaskets for these engines because I wanted to open them up & check the internal condition because neither of these engines were stored with oil in them.I was told that these engines are no longer made & none of the shop could get me parts.The 40 turns over good with good compression & if I didnt know its been stored for 6 years I wouldnt even hesitate to start it up.Any suggestions on what to do , or any information about these two engines would be greatly appreciated. I did take the 25 apart to unseize it.I figured I had nothing to lose so I started it & it runs( kinda runs,but that will be another thread LOL ).I would like to put the 40 on a sig kadet that Im building so I figured Id ask for advice before taking a chance on ruining it.
Thank for any help.
