blaster motor for sale

[mud runner]

there is someone on cl around me that is parting out a blaster and i called to ask how mutch he wanted for a clutch basket and he said he wanted to keep the motor toghter but he said he would sale the motor for 250 should i get it

Well like anything else it depends on condition. If compression is good, no play in the rod, and the cases aren't cracked then yes. If the cases have chain wack and the crank is sloppy then your paying 250 for the top end and some spare parts. Can you hear it run?

 

[mud runner]

no but the motor looks clean like it was taken appart and rebuilt and painted or power coated

 

[Wifesblaster]

Don't judge a motor by it's cover! I would not buy a motor unless I could hear it run, do a compression test, or disassemble it. My .02

i have a clutch basket id be willing to sell very cheap PM me if you need it still.

I would at least ask him if you can do a quick check of the piston, bore and crank. It's easy and quick enough to remove the head, then pull the jug off the bottom end and check for slop in the crank. You can do a leak test on the motor even if its not in the frame. Check all around the outside of the cases for marks. If there's no leaks and your confident in your visual inspection then BUY IT ! ! !

 

[JBRoc01blaster]

Use the fact that you can't hear it run to your advantage, if he's asking $250 offer $200 !

 

[mud runner]

pm sent and i may offer him 200 but ill have to scroung up some money

 

[JBRoc01blaster]

As long as the motor is in fact mechanically sound it will definitely be worth having to scrounge ! If I was in driving distance I would buy it myself.
