"Longblock" is probably what he said. Most reman engines are shipped as a "longblock" basically block w/internals, and complete cylinder heads installed. all other parts gotta be swapped over. Line engines used to come more complete than that...like w/oil pan, valve covers, intake and lotsa other goodies installed...or something in between. The dreaded BACKORDER! The whole automotive world is on backorder right now! That's the kiss of death in your situation!Yeah not much detail was given. TBH very little empathy from the dealership altogether. They were sort of pawning everything off to Ford Motor Co. at this point.
He did say they needed to replace the Large Block, again, not sure what that means. He also said that the Bronco 2.7 is built to open two valves while cruising??? Lastly he mentioned the spark plug was shattered off.
Engines are on back order across the country, so they are trying another way tomorrow to contact HQ.
It is 30 days here for the lemon law too… I am contacting Ford Motor Co tomorrow to see what I can figure out since dealer is sort of washing their hands of it.
