5500 miles here.

208,000 on my old motor AND IT STILL RAN! it just embarrassed me with all the smoke it poured out. poor little engine.

it's sitting in my garage floor, waiting to be used as a test dummy

(so i can learn how to take our motor's apart)

You know what's running. that damn motor will still turn over.. and it's been sitting on a floor for 4 months.. lol

N/A's ALMOST run for ever.. lol
