Troops,

  

 Been cleaning out my hangar for our bi-annual Thanksgiving bash with the  in-laws.  The 40+ of us eat the meal in my hangar.

  

 I've had two CJ-6 fuel tanks sitting under a table off the floor since  putting Gill's bladder tanks in a couple years ago.  They are in very good  shape and have about 2,000 hours total time.  Fuel level senders are there  also.

  

 I am going to sell my HS-6 (260 hp) engine also.  Total time under 300  hours.

  

 Contact me off list for details.

Pappy,

 Your engine is a "since NEW" engine?  If yes it should be painted a very light sky blue in color. or is is a "since overhaul" engine, which is a dark blue or dark grey in color.  As you know it's all about time so there is a big difference in value.  If your engine has a total time of 300 hours then your saying that it is 300 hours since new.  If it is 300 hours since 1st overhaul then it has 300 to the top and approx. 900 on the bottom, 2nd over haul add 600 hours, third over haul add 1200 hours to both those numbers.  

   

  

 Doug

 Doug, and all,

  

 You are absolutely correct and going back and reading my posting, I now  realize how misleading it is.  My defense is that it was a last minute  decision.  I was cleaning out my hangar and the guy who I was saving it  for, changed his mind.  The engine was on the airplane when I purchased  it.  I was told that the engine had been overhauled and had only 5 hours on  it since that overhaul.  No Chinese engine logs came with the airplane and  only Xerox copies of the last two pages of the aircraft log.  Total time on  the airframe at the time was 1,088 hours.  Maybe not been wise 15 years  ago, but I took Bret Toussel (who had been a partners with Bill Bailey at China  Air) word in good faith.  And the IA at the time helping me put the  airplane together, felt the engine lived up to those specs. 

  

 The engine is painted gray.  I did not mean to insinuate that the  engine was 'since new' which again, after rereading my post sure sounded like  it.  My bad.

 In truth at this witting, I do not know how many overhauls its gone  though.  I do remember that it was running strong and had good compression  when I pulled it off for the M-14.  

  

 Is there is anyway to tell by external inspection on how many  overhauls a Chinese engine has gone though with any reasonable  certainty?

  

   To any prospective buyer, I will answer any question as  accurately and honestly as I can.  Of course there will be no  guaranties and in the end as always the decision is the buyers.

  

 Thanks Doug for catching this.
