DEAD AGAIN!!! Spun another bearing. This junk yard engine only lasted 2 weeks. They are getting me ANOTHER engine. At least the bolts have all been broke loose and we messaged the firewall for the 2 upper trans bolts.

That`s why you should never buy a used engine.I understand that everyone`s not rich.But hopefully you`ll have better luck this time.
