1st- Will this have enough power to move a CRT?
2nd-Pinched motors are ok right? Like they're not crap?

5 tanks my ass! I wouldnt bid on it looks like he got run alot. Pinched motors are fine tho
i agree it looks ooolllddd. maybe 5 gallons
Used motors suck. You never get your moneys worth out of them. Even if the motor has just 5 tanks on it, it doesn't mean its good. I can ruin a motor in a quarter of a tank if I wanted too..
so i take it ur getting the crt???
Yeah...I'm going to sell the revo after tommrow and start saving. It's going to be a bit until the money for everything is raised.

That's not necessarily true...I've run plenty of used engines and got great life and it been well worth the money spent...$150-$175 for a $300-$350 engine.

I have bought several engines off Ebay and all but one were good engines.

I would say that it is a gamble at best and you are taking your chances of getting a bad one...especially off Ebay.

Just my $.02
