Re: any experience with GEX rebuilt waterboxer engines?Speaking of leaks
I've had my GEX 2.1 and have to take in in for repair because since the
rebuilt it has been leaking form the oil pump for 4,000 miles of it's life
and I believe GEX will pick up the tab. I gave it a chance to maybe improve
but it now leaks close to a half a quart a mouth.

  Mention GEX on this list and you're sure to get an earful...with that said
I must say I am pleased with the rebuild they did on my '87 2.1 almost six
years ago.  61k miles later it still runs great and, knock on wood, no
leaks.
