Ok, let's try this again. Here is a video of the engine being compression tested. Both cylinders have excellent compression. Both will reach 200psi under a high current car battery.
This motor is 185psi nominal from TPE for gas, but the results go to show the shape of the top-end.
As far as...
Hey All - I've gotten a ton of response to the motor listing. Lots of questions for more pictures, info, etc. I'll be taking more accurate compression measurements tonight with a snap-on and will post those up and get back to those who have reached out to me.
For sale is a 2015 TPE 1021 4mm pump gas short block. Engine has roughly 35hrs of ride time on it total. She's been fogged every season.
Compression is a solid 163/165psi cold. Edit: See compression video below, cylinders topped out a 200 / 201 psi when paired with a car battery. The nominal...
I suppose I've been wanting to get some leak down blockage plates eventually, just wish it wasn't under this scenario and my pocket book.

Buyer Beware of extremely poor motor shipment packing, and poor customer service after the fact. Which is unfortunate as the rest of my experience with him was great, quick ship, quick transaction.
Engine was shipped in nothing but bubble wrap in a Sterlite. Seller refused to accept...
I'm actually 100% with you on this the more this plays out. I'm less pissed about the motor and more just pissed that the guy couldn't take responsibility for his crappy pack out.
I'm probably going to drop the PayPal claim and just live with being a little burnt.

I also dont believe the OEM crank is a welded crank? Not sure if a few four foot drops could slip a counter weight but I guess I'll find out if I ever get a chance to utilize this wonderful purchase of mine.

I'm concerned about that as well. If it's enough to get some clean cases and some compensation for my install time and gaskets and stuff I think I'd be cool with that.

Literally could have been a non-issue if the seller took a note from the factory about putting dampers under the motor.

I'm not actually sure, they're metal, but I'm not sure what they're doing there. Not a standard part on the couch motors?
I'm going to let the motor sit till the PayPal dispute blows over.

At this point I've assumed FedEx will tell me to shove it based on the photos so I've filed a PayPal dispute. Should be a fun next 6 weeks waiting.

Yeah I am being nitpicky about it.
But it doesn't change the fact that motor is not in the state that it was purchased in.
I wouldnt have bought it knowing it had been dropped repeatedly on concrete, I hope no one would.
Based on that it's grounds to ask for a refund. Product condition...
