Eco on Ebay worth it?
Thursday, December 08, 2005 6:34 PM
heres a link to it. i missed out on a local motor. so I'm back in a search for a motor. I had planned to doing some performance changes, and a maintenance check long before an install anyway.

all opinions welcome as I'm on the fence with it, this has been listed several times btw.

The customer takes care of all shipping charges and the motor is sold as is.

he's also saying something about the head that is worth 200.00 dollars, but he's selling the motor for 99.00 dollars.
I don't think I would buy that motor if there's no warranty.

I could be wrong,
That's just my opinion

Ironically enough I was looking at that same engine last week on Ebay... do you have an engine that is blown? I'd suggest a rebuild before you buy an EBay engine. I was too afraid to get an ebay engine and have it blow up 1,000 miles after i got it in. ebay is shady, i wouldn't trust it for expensive purchases.

By the time you add shipping you will be close to what a good junkyard motor costs out of a late model wreck. I looked on www.car-part.com and found several ecos with under 10K and a warranty for under 600 bucks in the Richmond, VA area.


God bless America.
