My point was simplicity. It doesn't get much simpler than an A-65.
I've heard of auto engines blowing rods through the block...I've heard
of auto engines burning off a valve head (equivalent of blowing a
jug)...I've heard of stuck valves...yes, changing things like hoses and
belts can prevent a failure down the road, but face it, **** happens to
airplane engines and auto engines. If you fly or drive long enough, I
bet either has an equal chance to leave you walking at some time in your
career.


If you have heard of these things happening, I would ask at how many miles,
and what abuse had been given to the engine, like no oil, not enough oil
changes, over revving, and what kind of engine?
