Vintage Russian Engine KMD 2,5 - Boxed with notice and CEO...

I don't know the russian production... That engine seems old, but I can read a date March 1991 on one of the papers... A russian friend told me that the lot really looks like made in the 60s'... The writing, the paper (very thin) used to print the notice... Mystère...

I don't know what to think about it...

The price is 150 €, widely open to debate...

You find some photos and some more details on my Ebay listing, my ID is "Dafnys3" on Ebay.fr...

If you have some informations... !

You may want to read this engine test, which is not quite encouraging as regards the quality of this engine:

For me, having been compelled to rely on various Russian industrial products before the Iron Curtain fell in my part of the world, this is no surprise. I would buy this engine for 150€ only if the seller packs in the box, in addition to the engine, at least 150€ plus cost of shipping, in cash... lol!
