Thanks for the links but I had already discovered these. The first lists the wrong rod, one for a 70. The second link shows the right part but on back order....which means "just how long do I have to wait?"

Thanks for the links anyway, at least I was looking in the same general area.

Regards

I could be wrong but when I broke a rod in the MAgnum 120 I got an OS 120 rod, piston and liner. They were an excact match and it is still running today. I would Imagine the 91 would be the same.

Is this any use?

Unfortunately not as my engine is a four stroke.

They have a 4 stroke section..... :)

Thanks for that, will place an order with this seller. I'm not too impressed that the Australian exchange rate has dropped against the US dollar.....but that's the price you pay.

Yep, found it. Sorry about that.

I forgot that I'm on the advantageous of the AUS/US exchange rate. Usually its the other way round, at least when dealing with European vendors.

I ordered the parts but the seller came back and (very kindly) advised he was out of stock, thus we agreed to cancel the transaction.

So, I'll have to keep my eye out for them to come back into stock.

I deal with US and UK so am aware of the annoyances of exchange rate. What I can't figure out is why the US won't buy from Australia, the exchange rate is in their favour and it's not like we're some 'dubious' trading partner.

I have bought from Down Under before. Best instance was when you couldn't find a Modeltech Magic here in the States for love or money. Found one for sale in Australia at a place called Sheldon's Hobbies and even with shipping came out less than if I could have gotten it at the local Hobby People. Think it only took something like two weeks to get it also. I wont hesitate to bid on an Ebay item in Australia if the seller's feedback rating is good.
