What If Problems Start Right After Install?

Post-install no-start, misfire, or warning lights can occur regardless of pre-replacement mileage — often tied to **timing, fuel, spark, or prime** rather than a confirmed defective long block.

Before any unit is removed under warranty:

  • Odometer at delivery and at symptom
  • Full scan with freeze frame
  • Proof of oil prime and correct spec
  • Install invoice and torque documentation
  • Photos of leaks or contamination **before** cleanup
