RE: no warranty
NOrmal for any manufacturer. If the buyer doesn't have a reciept, he has no warrenty. It doesn't transfer. Thats why it doesn't make sence to buy a new engine second hand unless you save a bunch. I always laugh when someone pays within $5 of what they can get it for new. They loose so much in warrenty and take the chance of getting hosed to boot to save a few bucks. Never got that.
