You guys are not gonna believe this....
I swear this is just my luck.
So everyone knows that i have been lookin for a motor. I havn't rode basically since xdl cuz i blew my **** up. Finally found one on here that was reasonably priced. UPS dropped it off today......in a card board box! The guy I bought it off of shipped a motor in a cardboard box! This thing is all fucked up! A bunch of the electrical connectors are broken, stator cover broken, valve cover broken, a few of those aluminum holes you put hoses on broken, timing sensor broken, plug connector broken, etc. etc. Thats what i've found so far. So I take the oil pan off to take a look at some more surprises. quarter size chunk of aluminum in the oil pan, there is no oil pick up, or oil pressure regulator.
So you guys think this thing runs or what????
I have been pming the member i bought it from on here all day with no response. I wanna give him a chance to make this right before I say any names. so just when I think my luck is turning around and i'm gonna get to ride again,I paid $550 for a bunch of broken parts. I was really hopin to ride with everyone local before i left next week too. Will see. I'll keep everyone posted.....
