Parts available for older engines?
Hi Dennis!
That engine is old enough we don't even have a parts list on line for it, so i really doubt we'll have much. If you have your instructions you can use the part #s provided to check if we have the parts (or you can list them here and i can look htem up for you)...
Those old engines which we know we have parts for are listed in the parts listings at:
http://www.osengines.com/parts/discontinued.html
http://www.supertigre.com/parts/index.html
If your engine is not listed here, we have little or no information available to assist you.
These gentlemen rebuild old motors and stock large quantities of older engine parts. Either of them may be able to assist you:
1) Preferred means of contact: PetesRC @ aol.com.
Pete's Hobbies

Grand Rapids MI 49507
Fax- 616-245-3106
Phone calls will be greeted with an answering machine. Please leave Name, Ph No. and, preferably, what you are looking for:
PH 616-243-9149
(Please note that there may be as much as a one week delay in response time due to extensive travel to shows, swap meets, and FLYING TIME! Lucky them! :-)
2) Model Airplane Engines- Antique to current, to use, to get out of production parts off of, or general purpose. 1200 Engines on My list - Buy- sell-Trade! send 33 cent stamp to get list or write to:

Fax 24hours : 402-334-4173

3) Gene Steinkamp

4) PISTON RINGS ONLY:
For discontinued piston rings, try contacting Frank Bowman. He manufactures repro and current piston rings for our modeling needs. He can make standard and Dykes type rings. If he doesn't have the ring you need in stock, you send the piston and cylinder and he will make it then. prices are $7.50 up to $9.50. His work is of the finest quality.
Frank can be reached at [email protected] or 1-505-327-0696 ( 6pm to 9pm mst. weekdays) and the following address:
Frank Bowman
1211 N. Allen
Farmington, NM. 87401
5) Alternatively, you might try placing an ad on one of the internet lists such as rec.models.rc.***, www.rcuniverse.com and some of the many other r/c related sites to attempt to purchase the item which interests you.
6) You might try swap meets, club sales, estate sales that list hobby equipment, etc.

Hi Anne-Marie!
Sorry for the long time span between posts here.
I looked up the parts listed in your link and found a part that I need. The part number is 24205001, your catalog number OSMG4032 (24205001 Connecting Rod 40FSR ) Incidentally, what does "FSR" mean?.
I wonder if it would be possible for you to check availability of this con rod for me? Any assistance you can give me would be appreciated.
Regards,

Dennis,
Sorry, the part you're looking for is no longer available from us or from O.S. OSMG4032 is no longer in our system.
You'll need to inquire through the swap shop areas here on RCU or elsewhere on the Web to see if you can locate the parts you need for your enigne.
You can also try those retailers who sell to engine collectors. They may have the parts you need. They usually advertise in the small ads in the rear of the model magazines.
We're sorry we're not able to be much help.
