    Very simple motors, DO NOT baby them though, they are made to have the shit beat out of them, they aren't made to putt around and be driven nicely. That's why so many have issues. Pre mix it at the pump, do regular maintenance and then some and you're golden.

    Pics don't show what condition the motor is in. Go take it for a test drive. Only then can you truly decide. The 12A motors are almost bulletproof, so mileage should not be too much of a concern.

    Quoted for truth.


    I've had a lot of FB's. The 12A's are great motors, and only need regular maintenance. The cars are a lot of fun, although not the fastest cars out there.
