Hello All, thanks for your info and words of wisdom so to speak with this
problem. In case
you don't remember I bought a 2.1L from an ebay seller and he sent me a
1.9L and
refuses to take responsiblity for the mistake. He said if I'd pay shipping
for the 1.9L back to
him, he'd look around and see if he had a 2.1L and then I'd have to pay for
shipping the
motor back to me.

I've talked with a local attorney. He says basically since the guy I bought
the engine from
is so far away that it would cost more than what I paid for the engine to
contest this and
that I would be better off to just sell the engine and get the correct one.

So if anyone needs a 1.9L, which according to the seller - runs good, no
leaks and was
rebuilt within the last few years, contact me (573) 238-2143. I'd like to
have $700 for it.  If
no one needs this then I guess I'll have my mechanic move the parts off of
my 2.1L and
install the 1.9L into my '87 Vanagon.
Thanks, Anthony Bailey

Oh and btw the seller that I bought this from is...
Paul Perko
ebay alias munky butt <munkybutt92@yahoo.com>

I'll post his phone number later as I don't have it with me at the moment
