    Default 1950 Pacer needs engine overhaul

    How do I post that I have a 1950 Pacer with the original 0-290 that needs an engine overhaul (2050 TT). I’m looking at all options: getting an 0-320 selling as is to someone that has an engine that needs an airframe in good condition.

    We have a classified section but you need to be paying member to post in that section. Maybe someone reading this post will have an engine or need your airframe.

    Why are you saying it's needs an OH? What is the compression and oil usage?

    MY IA SAYS IT NEEDS A MAJOR OVERHAUL. We could hear air blowing by the oil filler tube when turning the prop. Oil usage has increased to over 1 quart/hr. Max RPM on the ground was 1600.
