Re: Need to identify a motor.
Hi
It looks like the damage is on the main casting. I think it is likely cheaper to just buy another engine. By the time you buy a crankcase and gaskets (if needed) it can get expensive. On top of that you have the difficulty of removing the bearings without damaging them. Is the crankshaft OK? 46 size engines are pretty cheap. See what you can get one for, here on RC Canada. |

Re: Need to identify a motor.
It doesn't hurt to try, but Great Hobbies has new Super Tiger 45 ABC on sale for $64.99.
http://www.greathobbies.com/producti..._id=SUPGS45ABC GMS are also pretty cheap. To me the difference in price between a used engine and a new one isn't that much. |

Re: Need to identify a motor.
Just to let you know what the TS stands for.. If I remember correctly its for Tiger Shark... Chinese engine probably out of the same factory that makes GMS.. As Ken says your better off just getting a new one, to fix that one isn't worth the time or money..
