I have this turbine that was stuck in with a bunch of others. It is aproxamatly 3.75 - 4 in. There are no markings except a hand engraved number: 891018. Was told that it looks like an AMT but he was not sure.

Looks like an AMT Mercury... depends on condition and accessories but anywhere from 500 to 1200 on the top end i would imagine.

you have a task in front of you, if you post where you are located, you may be able to get some help. also if you post pics of the parts you have, some of the members here should be able to help tie them back to one of the turbines. you are really helping her out and that is to be commended.

Wildvortex

This is all I have here that is not definitely tied to a specific turbine

Not sure what the board is, is there anything identifying on the back side?
the other is just misc 'festo' fittings, valves and a felt filter

It looks a lot like my first AMT Mercury which I got on this site 5 years ago for $500. But you need a pic of the controller and pump.

Without at least the ecu it's virtually worthless. A new ecu from amt is very expensive. There are others that you could probably make work but as was just mentioned a complete mercury with ecu, pump, etc is worth generally 500 to 600 bucks. If a guy has to buy an ecu and pump just to make it work it's hardly worth it. I've seen guys selling amt ecu's from time to time but pretty rare.

Wildvortex

Well, there is another box over there marked jet so probably have the rest of it. He wouldn't have bought the turbine without all the other stuff to make it run.

Wildvortex

I will have to look tomorrow afternoon.

If you find ecu and fuel pump let me know.

Wildvortex

Haven't found anything yet. There is so much to go through. I just came across a Gryphon and a F-86 airframe.

AMT USA Mercury in working condition is worth about $500.00 - $750.00.... Pegusus , $1,000.00 - $1,200.00... Netherlands is a whole different story... It's ashamed about the values, they are without a doubt the best most bullet-proof engine made... They have always been behind on electronics but the engine more than makes up for it... Been running a USA Mercury bought in 1999 second hand still running perfect, never in the shop once... Original bearings and all !!!

What does the computer and pump look like on one of these?

Definitely a USA AMT Mercury AT180. .

I have 7 AMT's and have had no access to service since 2005 , nor have I needed any since 1999. Works without any ability to adjust any parameters. It just works.

Thank you for the pictures C/F. Now I have something to have his family to be on the lookout for.

Wildvortex

Look what I found today

Wildvortex

I picked up a HE-162 today. That turbine was purchased for this I Believe.

Awesome! That's a version 1 ecu. There are a few of us dinosaurs still running them, if you have any questions just ask.

Wildvortex

Thanks, I will be looking to sell it though. Hopefully as a package with the HE.

Wildvortex

Guy interested in the turbine says that he noticed the EGT sensor is missing. Is this turbine equipped with a EGT sensor?

Wildvortex

Isn't this the little wire thing strapped to the outside of the can running a wire to the back of the turbine?

Dr Honda

My Feedback: (4)

Yep.... it's normally strapped to the outside of the can.


****EDIT***

I see it in the pictures in the first post.

Wildvortex

That is what I thought potential buyer said it is missing from the pictures. Will send this along to him. Thanks

Your original picture does not show the yellow plug which is male on the turbine which then plugs into the yellow plug which is female on the ECU that would clearly show that the thermocouple probe is included these are only a $10 industry standard thermocouple so don't let that fool you

Wildvortex

Ok another mystery item. Does this belong with the AMT?
