Great job Bruce, as always!!!
Sorry that you had to though, as I (as the others in here) also think that they should up their standards considerably, when it comes to deeming an engine ready for sale.
I purchased one of their first engines (single cylinder mill engine), and for similar reasons immediately gifted it away after the initial inspection, to an elderly family member who wanted it for cupboard display only.
Your experience here only further cements my suspicion, that PSE mostly have customers that want a stationary ornament on their desktop, since their reputation isn't completely ruined yet.
