Recent engine acquisitions

Nice bunch of AMF/WenMac/Testors!  Did you buy the whole lot just for the Needle valve and spraybar? I'd been watching a "lot" of WM parts and pieces just for a couple of gasket sets, but the lot went W A Y over my budget for what I wanted out of it:


I DID just get this lot from a guy in Toledo,OH. thanks to Freds post on his listing on RCgroups. The seller and I were going to meet Half way between Toledo and Grand Rapids, but he got his Pay Pal account  re-activated to receive payment. He just boxed and mailed it all to me. Dropped off Saturday at 11:30am was on my porch Monday at 1pm!! All for 11.65 in postage.  ALso recently got a 96oz jug of Berrymans Dip for cleaning these up, DIP, soak, brush, rinse, lube and the look like NEW!

Wow Rene, my dream buy!!  Look at all that stuff!!!!!!  Closed end Cox and Wen Mac wrenches.......and the glow heads etc. NIP ............ and, and the engines.  And Berrymans.  Wonderful.

I really just needed that NVA, the rest was icing on the cake. The reason why I need it. This engine was a mess but it cleand up nice and I was real proud of myself. Then I tried to run a wire through the spray bar.

Postage Stamp Backplate COX (Stuka 290/302-1) engine, bought at local auction site in Serbia , within trashed STUKA model.



Stuck, dusty, gummed, soaked overnight in old fuel,



Dismantled, cleaned, checked, looks like it was not run more than single flight with STUKA.



And is now ready for 2023. flying seasson...



Wondering the year of production, 1960's or 1970's ?

Mist likely the 70-s, the engines from 60-s mostly had thin wall cylinders and tapered crankcase nose, whereas yours has a stepped wall cylinder and straight crankcase nose.

Köszönöm Andras , just saw number #2 stamped on cylinder , so, this should be single bypass cylinder, which is more or less standard one.
Hope will run well, on some new CL model.

Nice lot, can I see some new in blister pack RC carbs ?

Are they for a td09 ?

That stuka looks like a viable airframe ?

Looks OK, only port aileron is broken but repaired.
Canopy, Landing gear , pilots, spinner, bomb and gun are missing.
Bought it to have another engine, first one with postal stamp backplate.
