Keep in mind the prior owner did a timing belt,(shade tree mechanic used) it ran for a week or 1.5wks or so, if I remember correctly, then lost power. Now, lost power sounds a far cry from a seized engine which is a horrible experience. So, either the guy was lieing(which I think) or something from the timing belt change did go wrong, in which case something in the top end could be jammed.

Keep in mind it also has a new belt, water pump, ect. So the extra engine should be a gold mine of spare parts for your stocks. Just use what ever looks best on the project. A spare engine would be nice, but I am dubious.

Anyhow, I will check in on you guys time to time and make sure the sawz alls stay low on the body <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />
