I have to laugh every time someone buys a vehicle with a "rebuilt" engine. Yeah, right.
When I buy, I want a worn-out or blown-up motor with the price being commensurate with the condition. Then I know where I'm at and can opt to do an engine swap or rebuild the motor myself.
It is particularly important for the individual who knows nothing to follow this pattern. Buy it with a bad motor and take it to a repair facility for a crate motor swap or whatever.
TRUST NOBODY!!!!
It sounds to me like your friend is a hard-head. He can't have checked out the intake gaskets if he hasn't had the heads off. Sounds like he's too p***ed off to communicate intelligently. If it were me, I'd side-step talking about the truck at all until he cools off and can listen to reason.Last edited by techinspector1; 09-25-2008 at 01:48 PM.

The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
