Just bragging

That would be an .09-II from between 1960 & 1966.

Bob did you see recently the New Re-issued Enya .35 (5224) that sold out instantly?

The guess on Stunt Hanger was Ken Enya and the boys were using up old stock cases and this is not a new production unit...no idea how many were made but the went for $149


Beautiful engine

Love to have gotten my hands on that Enya Fred

Me too ---as soon as the thread showed on SH--- I went to Shttrman but he was already sold out

I still have my original 5224 .35 from the late 60s here and would have been cool to have a 55 year younger new one

I had a chance but I am engined up pretty well and passed. It took more than 12 hours for the ebay listing to sell out... not much more though.

Darn Phil


oh well

I saw it a day late...sent a note to shttrman hoping he held back one or two for himself or a later auction... no soap


but he did say he wished he had bought many more and was not expecting them to sale out that fast

No Fred, I missed it.  Got to go sit in a corner facing the wall.  

I did score an Enya .15 CX-S while Bob had them.  Neat little engine that may still be available.



The ME-109 model still hasn't seen air time, nothing but bench time so far.  Weather when nice has been to windy to fly, when not windy (seldom) it's raining.  Bummers.

I have a couple of other Enya's with that weird early carburetor.  No air bleed and no stop, the barrel rotates 360 degrees.  Rod, the Enya .09II is a favorite of mine.  Enya finished the case differently with a much smoother appearance then their other engines.

Ron's engine in waiting.



Missing some head fins so I haven't ran it yet. When I opened it up Ron, it was clean, clean, clean!!!  I boiled it anyway, came out like new.  Bob is looking for some parts for a "tear-drop" aka "airfoil" Enya .29 a somewhat "rare" engine too, and he always holds back an order until he can fill it completely so I may have to wait awhile for that new head.

I might have been able to double my money...haha. Too much of a risk for something I might never use. If I had reason to believe I would use it in the next year or so I would have jumped on it.

I too love the Enya engines but not quite insane enough to collect too much stuff I most likely never use (but I have a few shelf queens)

I love your collection

I really really need to finish my catalog of all this hobby stuff so my widow or kids can properly sell/distribute it

My son is paying attention and knows I have a few pieces that may pay down his mortgage some day

Phil...the $149 + shipping buy in was already a little steep for me too even if I had been paying attention

Much as I would love to own this one... I will pass on the future inflated priced auctions that are coming (I suspect)

Though I have a shelf queen Enya .35, I've known nothing about them until now. Thanks Rod, for posting that link to the .09. That was a good write-up. Now I can go back and read all the other posts after that. I wonder why they didn't call it a .10, since its displacement is .098ci. I also will look up my engine and see what I can learn about it. I think it's a pretty well regarded CL engine. Black plastic square venturi and a wiggly needle. I might put it in my Nobler, which has been hanging too long awaiting a repair.

I have to admit that I've been hoarding a few enya engines myself. Mainly the smaller once and especially their ABC and AAC engines are great!
