Just want to let the group know I am selling a YS 63 FZ on Ebay, item
number 3190163171.  If you are looking for this engine, this is a
great deal.  Item description is as follows;

Auction is for an almost new YS 63 FZ 4 stroke engine.  I put this
engine on my H9 Funtana for 3D but due to the pressurized fuel system,
it is sucking air somewhere through my fueling system.  I am not
willing to change the fuel delivery on this plane so I am selling the
engine and putting a 2 stroke on it.  It runs fine on the plane while
on the ground as well as on the test stand.  This engine has never
been crashed.  This engine has about a half gallon of fuel run through
it.  Fuel used was Coolpower 20/20.  I am also including a Tru Turn
spinner with the necessary adapter as well as an APC 14x4W prop.  The
retail on these items is $250-$290 for the engine and $50-$60 for
spinner and adapter kit.  Total retail is ranging from $300-$350.
Thanks for looking.  Please email me with any quesitons.

Bidding starts at $200.

How can it be a great deal if it is on Ebay?  It would be a great deal if
you offered it here at a great price.  Otherwise it is no better than the
rest of the stuf on Ebay.

With the amount of use and price, it is a great deal no matter where
it is offered.  If you are interested, email me at

So, if someone bids $5000 for it it is a good buy?  For you only!

My point is, No one who puts an item up for bid can claim that it is a good
buy unless you put a Buy-it-now price on it that IS a good buy.

The new YS 63-S is available for $239.87.

I know they are 239 new.  But does that include a $50 Tru Turn spinner
and adapter and a $10 prop?  No.  So are you saying 200 as a starting
price for what would cost 290 new is to high?  This engine has had a
half gallon of fuel through it, so realistically, it is new.
Especially considering the only change in the new model is the
location of the regulator.  Even my buy it now price is considerably
less than "new" after you get all of the shipping and taxes on.  It
sounds like you want me to put a ridiculously low price on it that you
consider a good deal.  Who does that profit?  I am not trying to be a
jerk here, but if you do not think it is a good deal, then move on.  I
was simply putting it out here to let people know.  I will also point
out that I ended the orignial auction from a buy it now only, to start
at $200.  It would be very dumb to take less than that.

I would not consider an engine with 1/2 gallon of fuel through it
used.  Do you only buy cars with 0 miles on them?  I doubt it.  I
guess I still do not see what the big deal is here.  I simply put a
message out here to let people know about an engine I am selling and I
get hassled.  Like I said in my previous post, I am not trying to be a
jerk, but if you are not interested, move on.  My mother taught me
that if I do  not have anything nice to say, to say nothing at all.
Obviously some posters here did not learn that.  To those that did
learn that and did not make any stupid comments, thanks.

Yes, the engine is used. Period.
Automobiles have fuel delivery systems designed to meet the engines need.
Automobiles have fuel injection to supply only what the engine needs when it
needs it.
Automobiles have computers and sensors to control said fuel delivery and
ignition timing too.
Automobiles do not rely on proper fuel delivery for lubrication.
I buy nothing but new vehicles and have refused delivery because they came
"from the factory" with over 25 miles on them.
The beginning of an engines life radically affects it's end.
