Sorry, was not trying to hijack the thread. I just wanted to hear directly from the owners of the Powerline engines. I will at least do a partial teardown on mine when I get it. My plan is to run it for just a few minutes to check the balance and make sure all is working correctly, then disassemble it and inspect and repair it as necessary. I did give up on trying to import some engines. I could have got them a few hundred dollars cheaper per unit, and I would not have to pay truck freight to get them to the house (about $400 each). But since things have gotten a little tighter now days most everyone backed out, and it is not worth the hassle to me to import one or two. So Powerline owners, What did you find when you disassembled your engines?
Thanks, Mike.
