With the new wave of advertising through the internet I see it is easy to unload a glorified paper weight disguised as valuable engine. I am amazed at the continual misleading and flat out deceptive ways of getting rid of a engine. For those of you starting out in this hobby, buyer beware you may not be getting what you pay for. I've been flying for 20 years and have experience in flying everything from slow to fast, and small to large. I have built a few 100cc engines and probably trained more people than I care remember. I see engines today that have prop strikes to complete destruction and they are being advertised as, like new, bench test only, never been in the air, mint in the box, only one or two gallons through it, etc., when in reality they are used and abused, or it's impossible to tell without using a dial indicator on it or looking inside to see if the crank twisted from that last prop strike. I have a suggestion for those of you buying an engine to call a manufacturer to see what all can happen to an engine when there is a simple thing such as a prop strike, to planting one. For those of you selling your mishaps, call them what they are, parts only. I have copied a few ads from past postings so you might educate yourself before spending your money on something that has no guarantee.

I had two new motors shipped to me in the same box and the other one knocked a couple of the cooling fins off of this one. ( Why didn't he return it?)

This motor has a bent fin due to my grandson accidentally pulling the motor off bench while looking at it! This will not affect the engine at all. (And now we know why the crank wobbles)

NEW, RUN ONLY TWO TIMES ON THE ENGINE TEST TABLE. (3rd time it came off and went airborne).

So, I will sell my engine with mufflers, no ignition or prop drive. We can discuss shipping. The previous owner dropped it while installing in the plane and broke a small section off of two cylinder cooling fins. (In most cases when hitting the ground at speeds excessive to 80 mph there's not much left, it gets wiped off onto the ground. (No ignition, prop drive, minus a few fins).

This is a new Brison 3.2 with a gallon of fuel ran through it. (with or without oil mix?)


I HAVE A G-23 USED ONLY ONE TIME ON A SUKOY AIRPLANE, COMES WITH (NEW MUFFLER AND NEW PROP). (Those have to be replaced often when nosing over).

I have a bench tested Brison 4.2 that is absolutely mint condition with ignition. (I see this a lot, Oh yeah they all get bench tested only. I fly with over 150 pilots per year from 60 mile radius and have rarely met any that take the time to bench test or break in.)

Posting for a friend. (Try to find their friend after you make payment, who should I make this check out to??)

This was a add from a auction site: Offered for sale is a like new Zenoah G-62 model airplane engine. It has only been bench run. It spins a 22" prop like a toothpick. It turned out to be too powerful for the airplane it was purchased for (turned out that a G-28 was enough) and so it is now offered for sale. If you know your way around big, gasoline powered engines you should jump on this item right away. (First off its a G-23 and that's along way off from a G-62 in size. Second, how does one get that attractive scrape mark on the fly wheel, perhaps the flywheel isn't turning true and rubbing against the coil? [see picture])
