should i be worried!!!!

I just read in the thread about the warranty void that it was a 2001 that blew a spark plug!!!!

I wonder if i should re-torque them know (600.6 miles).

Any input on this????

Bob

are you referring to the one about the oil plug not in?

If so that was b/c the rep saw a few harmless mods and decided to use that to get out of warrenty work.

His warranty was voided because of what the dealer and rep feel was aftermarket parts causing his bottom end to blow chunks and metal out.

They previously replaced his head under warranty, because of the sparkplug blowing out, but in doing so they didn't put an oilplug in the back of the head (they do not come w/ the oil galley plug in them from the factory, which is quite stupid), and oil shot out.

Unfortunately the dealer nor the rep does not want to warranty his powertrain even though this may have caused it. They feel it was all his mods that did.
