To the dealer I go.

taking my car into the dealership today to get a few things looked at.

I am pretty convinced that my car has an internal coolant leak which should qualify me for a new (reman.) engine.

but before I take it in I am worried they will complain about my Esmeril Ignition system.

If it comes back that I need a new engine will my ignition system void this warranty?

It wont void your warranty (at the dealers discretion), but part of the engine core is the ignition coils, so unless you never want to see your ignition again, you should put it back to stock before having the engine replaced.
