Lessons learned?: Buying a "used low mileage engine"....

[Brucelee]

I locked the original thread. The back and forth behind the scenes is not something that I want to get into. Suffice it to say, there is controversy and disagreement.

The best take away here is not big news.

1-Be VERY VERY careful buying ANYTHING used, esp an engine.

2-Be very very careful who you place your trust in when you dish out the kind of money that an engine rebuild entails.

Due diligence is ALWAYS recommended in these matters and that can rarely be done over the Internet.

So, again, no flamming or name calling please.
