I posted a few months back that we had a fire in a 2006 Genie S-65 boom lift. We are a little slow at the moment and i have been trying to dig into this and get something figured out. This machine has a LRG 425 engine. Basically everything on the fire wall side is burnt electrical wise. Not being a mechanic i am having a hard time determining what is needed. I got a parts print out from a Ford industrial dealer but it doesnt have an electrical break down. I called them back and when i told them it was in a Genie lift they said to contact Genie and they couldnt provide a electrical parts sheet because Genie custom orders these engines and they couldnt guarantee the parts on the machine.
So, i have pulled as many part numbers out of the Genie book as i can determine and i am having a heck of a time getting a price for all these parts. I will say that the computer is blackened but not deformed in any way, i am told that is a spicy meatball to buy!
Questions:
1) Can someone guesstimate the cost of these parts (if thats even possible)
2) I went to the local junk yard and it looks to me that a ford 2.3 Ranger engine has the same parts. Is that true? The Ford dealer couldnt confirm for sure
3) I got a price on a new complete spec engine with computer and duel fuel control for $3200. Is that a good price and is this the best approach?
The engine doesnt look like it got too hot, the fire was put out within about 2 minutes.
Let me also say that since we had a large insurance claim last year that i dont want to claim this. So whatever happens is going to hurt bad and be paid for out of pocket.
Any opinions or guidance would be much appreciated...... Thanks
