That's not going to last long at that price.

Wrong gauge for up here.

Had this engine sold? I have been reluctant to consider buying it because I could not figure out how to get it home. There is a possibility that I will need to haul a load of stuff from Colorado to Washington, DC this fall and if it is still available, I would consider buying it on my way back home.
