I bought mine in 1988 and it was a piece of crap!
I recently shipped it to meccoa and got 20.00 for it and in return got a new GMS.47 and love this engine!:D

I have 2 of them sitting in a box at my parents house. Havaen't been run for about 7 years. They might be good for airboats, or something other than planes.

Sorry, but the OS 40 FP was one of the best, most reliable two stroke engines ever produced.

I've owned three of them and still have all three. Once broken in (properly) they all started first flip on virtually every trip to the field. They also produce nearly as much power as the 46 LA in my opinion. (I have one of those too.)

The O.S. Max .40 FP went out of production in 1995.

I second that, they were not a power house but very dependable.
