[QUOTE="Hotrod1830, post: 119355, member: 4331"] At $2K your probably still OK on price as long as everything else looked OK. I paid about that for one that had a hole in the block, but visually you could tell it was a well maintained machine. They just could'nt find an engine for it. You mentioned you used a bore scope and saw no damage in the cylinders. You can try pouring a penetrating oil (wd-40) into the cylinders and letting it sit for a few days and try the starter(plugs removed), and see if it breaks lose. Otherwise, better remove it and pull it apart and take a look. Parts are still available, as the 1.6l Ford was used in the Ford Pinto. If you need gaskets, or long block parts( pistons, piston rings, bearing, ect..) , The pinto parts can be used. The camshaft, intake, exhaust manifold and oil pan are Bobcat specific. [/QUOTE]
