kevin b Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 One of our club members asked me if I wanted some engines, as I like "playing" with them. Well, what could I say ! Anyway he tells me that one of them is a brand new Jen 37 that he has had an "arrival with and it has a crack at the bottom of the casing. I had a look and thought that if I stripped it down I might be able to seal the crack. After all, it was actually a brand new (one flight) engine. So I stripped it down and all was well until I removed the crank shaft. I now have a collection of new spares for a Jen 37. Unless anybody has some really good glue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
