I was afraid of zero reliabilty if I bought a running one....so.....I'll do it right, now, with known problems, rather then worry... :ah:
Thats the way I would go if i was planning on keeping it. at least you know the history of the motor.

what size motor are you getting? 3.2, 3.4, a 3.6? might as well do it right
