LOL! .....yes, I have to admit, the thought has crossed my mind!


Particularly when everyone seems so adverse to doing actual diagnostic work to find what caused this! And if they DID get the Ford authorization, what stops them from finding it, THEN pitching it to CYA?

Another thought though: I saw a piston that had an injector tip driven into it to the point the tip was flush with the piston's surface. Even knowing the tip was there, it was very hard to see. I would be examining that piston very carefully to be sure that whatever caused those marks is not embedded in it.

Yeah, if I can get someone to actually honor my warranty, you can bet that's the first thing I want to see when it comes out of the soup! (solvent tank)
