spigot Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I have a Pap1100 with solo 210 engine heading onto eBay next week. Keep your eyes open, I suspect it will go for around £900 Your lucky being light as there are Plenty of motors to suit your weight range out there at the same sort of money.

Michaelt Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Looks good! Cheers what hours does it have on it? And what fuel tank? But thanks! Also, does anyone know the rough fuel consumption on these? Just out of interest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spigot Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Outcast (Dave) will know the fuel figures and tank size. The motor has aprox 80 hours on it as of 4 years ago, We changed the main bearings after a full strip down. started it up and the exhaust fell to bits. it's sat dormant ever since. In the last couple of weeks I've sourced an exhaust, replaced the pull start, removed the tank, carb, and fuel lines cleaned and replaced. Just need to tune it up now. The cage has 2 areas of weld, apparently due to vibration not crashing and one of the rubber engine mounts will need replacing for piece of mind. The prop has a small dink that's been repaired with epoxy, and at some point the prop bolts have been over tightened and squashed the prop hub 2mm ( not really an issue, just to be honest ) Sent from my iPhone using PMC Forum mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michaelt Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Thanks for the honesty, nothing major then! How hard are the mounts to replace? But other than that, will it all be checked and fitted? Just thought id also ask, what's the harness like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michaelt Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Dave, how much would you like for the prop as I can imagine I may fall on my ass and smash one if I am not careful! Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
