[QUOTE="Corbic, post: 16137420, member: 171475"] No expense spared would mean you'd be building the engine, not buying a used engine that has sat in a garage for damn near 10 years. Sorry, but not knowing either of you, I find it just odd that you "randomly" decide to check the cylinders of the engine a year after buying it. I'd sooner guess you ran it; it had issues and you then checked it. What's the compression/leak down numbers? As for the seller owing you anything - Its a used engine. Just about any scrap yard or engine reseller is going to only give you a 30-90 day start up warranty. Those are major companies that can easily absorb the losses. I can also tell you that many of them would not warranty some piston speckles like that if the engine runs. PayPal also only gives you 90 days to make a claim, same goes for most Credit Card companies. The reason all these groups use 90 days is because that is a reasonable window to identify any issues. Beyond 90 days, to much time has past to expect a seller to be held accountable, even on a moral level. At that point its the buyers fault for failing to inspect their purchase. [/QUOTE]
