kdiel11 is on a distinguished road
There is a well-used engine shop in SC that I was planning on shipping it to. I spoke with the owner. He was adamant that there was no requirement. He did say that no insurance company would insure it without a teardown but I don't insure it. I had a crank runout check that gives tolerances of 0 - 0.005" It ran out to 0.0005". So there is no doubt the crank wasn't bent. Additionally, there was little if any inertia left in the blade as the engine was shut down and the prop was coasting down as it hit the earth. Anyone else have any written requirement somewhere I would be glad to see it. KD
