Back last fall Mike Couillard purchased my NSI EA81 Turbo Engine, CAP (Cabin Adjustable Prop), Series 5 Engine Mount, and Cowling along with many accessories including a large lightweight cabin heater, and several gauges. Upgrades include the larger carburetor, custom stainless steel exhaust crossover, and larger aluminum radiator to accommodate the greater heat due to the turbo charger. My reason for selling the package was that I needed to modify my aircraft to match the new LSA requirements. I now have a firewall forward package from Jabiru which I will receive the second week of March.
Just as my life plans changed, Mike tells me he has experience health problems, and a change of employment which will not provide the income to support the completion or ownership of an airplane. You might remember that I posted information regarding his offer to sell his partially completed Series 5 Kitfox kit a week or so ago. He has it listed on Barnstormers.
At the time I originally offered my engine package, I had a problem with my dual ignition system. I have since repaired that and I have many parts left over which would allow a similar repair several times over. These will go with the engine. As of now the engine is still mounted on my Series 5 and can be run for a prospective buyer. As I want to remove it to install my new engine, time is of the essence. You can say we are motivated sellers.
Mike is asking the same price I originally offered on this list. $8,700.00. My purchase price was approximately twice that amount. The engine runs very nicely. It is very low time as I never completed my 40 hours fly-off. I ended up with a house to build and a 40 ft. sailboat in Hawaii to restore. I am in the process of completing that and am putting the boat up for sale to free up capital and time for my Kitfox. My eyes were bigger than my pocket book and available time could handle. I also have a serious heath threat. For those of you who kindly inquire from time to time, I currently feel great and am using up the life I am granted.
My cell phone number is 970 420-4415. My Colorado home number is 970 669-0498 with calls forwarded to my cell phone when I am away as now is the case. You can reply to this e-mail or call me.
Mike Couillard's phone number is 719 651-7722. Mike's e-mail address is couillard1(at)msn.com (couillard1(at)msn.com). Mike lives in Colorado Springs and I and the engine are at Loveland, CO which is about 50 miles north of Denver. Like they say on TV, "Lets make a deal"!
