Disadvantages of Buying Used Engines

Several years ago, I had a Suzuki Samurai vehicle that was a very fun car  in the summer and winter and then the sad thing happened, the engine had blown and I took it about 45 miles from where I lived to a car shop that installed used engines in my vehicle, that's right, not once, but twice used engines were installed..

The first engine had a thirty day warranty and it was leaking oil badly , so I took it back to the shop and the repairman said it was the gasket, so I left it with the shop, thinking the used engine's shop would repair it.

They finally called me and said my car was ready for pick up. I drove it home and thought everything will be okay since used engines had been installed twice in my vehicle and nothing else would be happening to my engine.

I drove the vehicle for a short period and then it all started again, engine leaking oil, smoking like a chimney, and wouldn't start half the time, so I contacted the shop that sold me used engines twice and  they told me that this engine has no warranty so you know I was ticked. I drove the car for a while, supplying its necessary thirst (OIL) and finally decided used engines weren't going in my Suzuki Samurai again, so I donated that car that had had two used engines installed  to the Kidney Foundation and took the write off as a deduction on my federal tax.
