[QUOTE="maintenanceguy, post: 473656, member: 24227"] After 43 years wires get brittle. Rubber and plastics harden. I don't know what happens electrical components like coils and condensers but ones that have been sitting for years seem to fail often. carburetor floats get leaks and flood wth fuel. Needle valves and valve seats corrode. It might be a good motor and I've bought a lot of old stuff. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't. I don't think there are enough of these being sold for anyone to know the "normal" price. I personally wouldn't spend more than $200 dollars and that's mostly because I might have to just throw it out and find another motor. I can afford to loose $200 on a gamble. [/QUOTE]
