Well after 4 months of waiting, fighting and worrying, I finally picked up my truck w/ the new 2000 engine last night.

Everything seems to be working. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!

I would like to thank everyone on this board for all the info. I don't know how this would have happened if it wasn't for you guys.

Thank you

One thing I forgot to mention. I got a 24 month 24,000 mile warraanty on the new engine.

For some reason I was expecting only 12/12,000.

I didn't complain.

 

Finally I got my new engine installed and got my truck back last night after a week and a half in the shop....but now I am happy. Now just hope this one lasts longer than the first engine. Build date on this new one is 3-9-00.
