    Hmm - wonder how he got the fuel/air mixture just perfect enough to run without a carb, and still be able to hear that there are no knocks or noise coming from the engine - what an joker!!! - He must be on some GOOD Stuff!!!! Someone should ask that seller a question just to see what kind of response he gives.

    yeah, well how long did it run for? long enough to make statements like "no engine noise" - seriously - sure it will fire, but tell me more about how well it ran? I need a new carb on my SX - but maybe I'll just replace the carb with a can of WD-40 - would be much cheaper, plus I would never have to put gas in it.

    back in the old days some of the first motors used something like the old purfume bottles with the thing you squeeze instead of a carb......same thing

    The point wasn't "could the engine run" it was can you make a statement that there is nothing wrong with the engine and it has no abnormal noises when only running it for 15 seconds.

    Pay attention and read guys. Oh, yeah...maybe try to throw in a brainwave while you're at it.
