Wow...atleast 4 broken Canadian engines including Rotten.

But one thing we should of put in - who bought new vs. used; how'd we know how a previous owner treated the car? As the original owner, I know that mine was broken in right, that the oil was always fresh, the level was perfect, etc.

Otherwise, I'm not sure what we're learning from this.

 

Engines are currently back ordered.

I dont see what the point of this thread is. In 2012 we will all be dead

 

Good Point, just sell the car and move underground now!
But, that would make a truly interesting thread LOL
