Default RE: Will MRC / ENYA replace / repair engine


ORIGINAL: Richard39

Everyone, nice replies and good advice.. I do want to make it clear that Mr. Ken Enya was very gracious and helpful.... He just would not consider any warrenty repairs... regardlesss... I may send him the engine for his evaluation and let us all just see what happens.... The skirt on the piston has a chip missing where there is a little curve/cut out place... I did get the piston out when heated in an oven but I can not get it close to going back in... The sleeve seems fine... I have it completly broken down.... I am just not sure that it is worth the expense to ship to Japan and then pay full price for parts and repairs... some warrenty consideration would be nice....

This is precisely why the end user should never disassemble the engine when still under warranty. Send it back to the folks that know the engines. And I agree with others that said that if the engine is still under warranty, the Altec folks should fix it. Maybe they will...
