NAPA Reman Engines
« on: January 31, 2006, 06:22:14 pm »
The NAPA retail store by me says they have 1.6L reman diesel engines. Has anyone bought from them before? If so, are they NA or TD? Longblocks, shortblock or complete? The guy I talked with on the phone was clueless which makes me a litte nervous. Any thoughts?

Usually they are longblocks from what I remember... "crated" you add the accessories, etc...

I'd ask them if I can see one of their rebuilt engine. If not then I'd pass. I wouldn't buy a rebuilt engine from a non-diesel shop.
