Part it out, it's worth more apart than together. Nobody wants to buy other peoples problems, but components can be put on their existing machine as replacement parts.

The thing is after the relay, it doesnt have problems. Those machines are so simple and things really havent changed that much over the years...The engine turns the blower & pump and sometimes supply the heat.

They have gotten better looking thats for sure.

I guess if I were looking at purchasing it, I would be concerned about the unknown. Nobody has an idea how wear there is on the unit without a working hour meter. Powerplant or Blower could be on their last legs?
Either of which could cost more than than the purchase price.

One selling point would be that it would be less than the cost of a decent portable and it would be much more productive. Not a bad back unit either.

I'd list it high and let them work you down to where you're comfortable selling it.

Wasn't that machine built in the early 1990's?

For a 20-year old machine that sold for around $10,000.00-$12,000.00 (???), $2,500.00 would be great price!
