[QUOTE="Eric C, post: 998046, member: 60578"] @STanner: I trust my mechanic, and he gave specifics that lead me to believe he's not making it up or going with a kneejerk reaction. He won't do the swap, so it's not like he's looking to make a buck by telling me I need a new engine (or more specifically, that the one I have is toast). He's actually making LESS money by telling me this :) In fact, now that I think back on the conversation, he even tried to talk me OUT of the replacement engine, saying the cost wasn't worth it given the age and mileage on the truck. Thanks for the info, folks. If anyone else has any input, I'm all ears. :) [/QUOTE]
