I'm getting a short block on warranty!!

I was complaining at my dealer about a surging I get when the engine is cold, during full lockup at 1300rpm. It turns out I have too much crankshaft end play and the speed sensor in picking up the movement and adjusting the ECM. I have 8 thou of play which is way too much. So, it's going into the dealer soon to have this addressed.

yeah its called the thrust bearing took a ****...thats why there is crank walk...we have done close to about 10 of these in the last month or so...

mine thankfully does not have this problem...

I'm not sure if it's going to get done now. Technically, it's on the maximum limit of tollerance. I'm going to have to see what they say.

Yeah. . .I got 25k miles for my short block to take a dump. Wife is praying for it.

Ithink that may be a little too obvious. . . unless I put a piece of wood in between. . . Hmm. . .:abovelol: You're corrupting me damnit!

Or, just buy a new or used crank bolt, install and beat on that one, then replace the bolt with the original one.;)

or a brick on the gas pedal and go sit inside and watch tv?
