I will be available Saturday from 9am until 5pm so anyone that want to come over please do so.

Having purchased that car from a used car dealer is going to present a problem for clearing it up. The first thing that we need to do is find out if Courtesy has posted the Vin number as Warranty Void. My bud at Mazda got laid off so we may need to find out from the dealer (somehow)(Gil if you tight with one of the Courtesy see if you can find out). If they did post it then it's custom rebuild time. If they did not post it then it may be able to get worked out. I'm sure it's just one of those ebay chips that is attached somewhere and we can remove it. Three driving cycles and all memory of it being there should be gone. Finding it can be a problem.

I'll see what a good rebuilt engine will cost these days. A three rotor would be nice but you would have to change all the fly by wire parts cuz the ECU is only set for two rotors and that would be expensive. I could be gaining another FI partner here. If he has no warranty then he might as well.

MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL

Felipe: Got some good news on the rebuild. Talk to you on Saturday if you come over. Bring over any report that they gave you at the dealer.

I ended up doing the shoping for Nancy and just came on line. AJ, does Phil live up by you? I do want to see that report. I might be able to come up to your house after I get off work and if Phil is off we could just meet there.
