> straight from his own when he said he never upgraded his oil pump??? do i need to find the quote? he did just reply to my comment right above yours so im guessing im at least in part right

theres no reason to upgrade the pump, it still does its job properly. you seam to think it was the problem, its NOT

dos didnt do any of the shotty work on this car, his mechanic did all the bad work … for example … never did clearance checks on the bearings or cylinder walls

it all leads back to the first test drive, and the cheap / sleazy repairs that were made
