[QUOTE="Phil Frady, post: 930329, member: 55634"] The "E" engine was a bad design. I had 190,000 when my chain jumped and the truck quit. I was given the choice to replace the cassettes (correct way) or going with a long block replacement. I chose the long block replavement. It was a little more expensive that way, but I got a better warrenty. After 18,000 I had to have the engine replaced again. They missed something in the cooling system and I had coolant coming out from under the intake. I am glad i went with the long block replacement, because this time it didn't cost me a dime. If you are mecahnically inclined, surf the net and get a block to change yourself. Otherwise, trading vehicle is less of a headache. [/QUOTE]
