Sounds familiar. How is the compressor wheel and blades? And also time since last service?


The compressor wheel is in one piece and looks to be undamaged. Further inspection most likely will show some issues. The engine was a spare that was purchased off of Ebay with only a couple of hours on it. After purchase Jet Cat USA provided some service under warranty. The engine was manufactured in 2012 but did not have allot of hours, being a spare.
