Re: Lost engine Even worse From california dan !!!!
Yeah it’s not real common, you live in the perfect place to run one. You may have to build one over time to keep the costs down. The track will be the hardest, but with 3D printing it may be possible to make one.

Re: Lost engine Even worse From california dan !!!!
Hi David, There is a 1:8 scale RC (toy-grade) snowmobile that's made by "Inter Active" Company. I have one.
Not sure if the track/drive can be adapted to your Cox sled.. but it might be worth checking out. There's also a 1:5 scale RC sled sold under the "New Bright" brand.
I'd like to see the track being able to be removed by merely releasing the tension from the drive-system. The track tends to "stiffen" around the radii of the drive-cog and rear idler roller during periods of non-use.. resulting in a "flopping" action when running cold. I'd rather have the option of easily installing a track that's concentric.. which would run smoother.. saving energy.
What is the scale of the Cox snowmobile?

Re: Lost engine Even worse From california dan !!!!
David,
A little difficult to understand that post. I am not sure exactly what you are asking or saying, but I think you are saying someone swapped your engine and sent you theirs? Don’t know why anyone would go to that length to take an engine. Not to me mention the logistics behind that would be something out of an Oceans 11 movie.
More than likely your engine was sent to the wrong person and they kept it.
Contact the seller and get a refund. Cut your loss and try again.

It's the combined postal systems David. Gone nuts as you say.

Re: Lost engine Even worse From california dan !!!!
What? You're saying someone who has your engine came on here and posted about it?
You need to contact Dan and have this sorted out. ASAP. Get a refund or a partial refund. If he doesn't want to work with you, open a claim on eBay and let them work it out. I know you're trying your best, but you may want to have someone type the messages for you as you're going to want them to be as coherent as possible.
I'm sorry you didn't get what you ordered, that sometimes happens. Probably an honest mistake. There's practically nothing we can do to help you get the correct engine. Maybe only if someone on here has Dan's phone number.
Remember, postal services are running at a snail's pace due to Covid.
