ok so i bent 2 connecting rods from hydrolocking my engine,and go and get a jasper reman unit and had the local shop throw it in. So i am driving along tonight guages are reading normal and everything then the next thing i know there is smoke or steam coming up and out of everywhere i turned it off gauges still running normal look under and there is antifreeze pouring out everywhere looked around the heads nothing to be found tow it home take the radiator cap off and crawl back under the truck and look up and one of the freeze plugs looked like it got shot with a bb gun like a perfect little hole. WHAT THE HELL WOULD CAUSE THAT it only had 50 miles on the engine and i was baby'n the hell out of it????????????

maybe someone shot your motor with a BB gun?


seriously... perhaps something happened to the thing in transit or at the shop. I'd definitely bring it up with the installer.
 






yeah they said when i picked it up that to bring it back up there in 500 miles so they could check over the engine and make sure nothing was wrong i am about the go up there and kick them in the teeth

If it's a jasper just take get another one - the warranty is 3 years 75 thousand.
