[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 1205431, member: 277"] Dang James, I sure hope there is a good outcome for you in all this BS. [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/26889-killed-my-engine/?p=339753"]Buying a used engine[/URL] isn't always simple. Now that the FJR has a long sales record in the US it is easier to get a good engine here than it was back around '06. Given the ECU differences, servo clutch, shift drum and shift linkages it will take some work to convert the AE into an A engine. I have learned not to trust *anything* said about a used engine. Before putting any work into the replacement engine, do a leak-down check and turn the engine over with a wrench feeling for any smoothness problems or unusual noises. Wishing you best luck and a good outcome! [/QUOTE]
