Favorite quote....."All there otherwise"..... apart from half the cylinder block! Any opinions upon why this chap can't get it to run?
Don't all rush!

I thought I recognised the seller, we don't sell seagull parts, in other words, they just don't take any responsibility for the part, even it it gets mashed in the post.
Had dealings and yes they do sell seagull parts.

I'm not so sure, at least not in this neck of the woods, I've just popped outside with a torch and an iPad to take a few photos of a couple of motors I found on my doorstep in the past couple of months and to be honest I receive a dozen odd motors a year like this, word gets around, normally they are total rubbish but you get the odd nice one, one of these even has a bronze bracket. The sad thing is that half the time I have no idea who left them hence no one to thank. Shame.
