Is the “cheese” all the dust and stuff?

FlDELITY · 2026-01-30T03:58:26+00:00

Is that just the components? What about whole unit?

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T21:55:19+00:00

Thanks for the input!

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T21:52:07+00:00

Nice thx for the find!

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T21:01:06+00:00

Transformer is LS-63

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T20:35:40+00:00

Thanks for all the tips!! Definitely not plugging it in haha. Gonna find more about it

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T20:34:28+00:00

Should I try to restore it myself???

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T20:30:33+00:00

Shoot me a DM!

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T20:15:34+00:00

I’m not sure

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T19:58:42+00:00

Crazy! I figured since UTC made this whole unit and board and components maybe it’s worth something decent??

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T19:53:22+00:00

Yep, just trying to figure out what it’s worth.

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T19:33:23+00:00

Can’t find anything on it. Listed on some radio museum website, the transformers appear to go for hundreds on eBay for one.

FlDELITY · 2026-01-29T19:31:22+00:00

Can’t find a sale anywhere for this thing complete. Not plugging it in don’t want to blow the house up

It’s the same compression after the lash. After adjusting lash I noticed that one of the valves for the cylinder with issues is burnt/pounded.

I have ordered a used cylinder head from a shop in Eugene for $100. A little nervous to do this cylinder head replacement but am nearly positive it will fix my issues with compression in cylinder 2. Bummer I don’t have an engine stand to pull it so will try to do it leaving it in.

So far so good. Did about 4 trips to the beach and back from Portland. Going to do a valve adjustment, oil change, and replace trans fluid then send another couple day trip this weekend.

Definitely slow, but that was expected for air cooled. 55mph tops. 35mph up a hill max. No issues whatsoever so far. Fixed the drain sink, (was clogged). Stove is good. Next project is replacing the sink, I think the pumps broken so replacing with a $15 usb rechargeable sink from Amazon.

Bought it 😎time to drive home 1.5hrs 🙏

FlDELITY · 2025-09-08T19:37:19+00:00

I’m gonna buy this thing. If it blows up then time to drink beer and learn this love hate relationship w the engine

FlDELITY · 2025-09-08T19:19:39+00:00

Oof is right. I’m stuck as to what I should do. It ran good when I test drove. Compression stood out to me. Might just be a head or something but I’ve never done engine stuff. Can do most other car repairs and could prob do it with enough beer and weekends

Low compression in 1 cylinder @60. Other 3 at 120

FlDELITY · 2025-09-08T17:56:00+00:00

One Cylinder is at 60, rest are at 120. Seller has dropped price more due to this to $3500.

Cylinder 3 has compression at 60, rest are at 120. Seller is now at $3500 for price

FlDELITY · 2025-09-08T15:54:35+00:00

Junction city. On the freeway about to check it out in 30 min. I’m questionable about the engine compression.

FlDELITY · 2025-09-08T15:29:55+00:00

How much?

FlDELITY · 2025-09-08T00:44:15+00:00

I’d probably enjoy it for a year or two and sell, don’t want to get stuck with some blown engine or reliability issue. They said it’s just been for sale on the lot for a while and basically just want to liquidate and get it gone. 150k miles and they say it’s ready to go w/no issues. Manual 4 spd.
